Guest guest Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 Hi all I am trying to find a place in Berkeley where I can go buy a Vegan cake for a birthday party at work today (trying to encourage and expose people to how good Vegan cakes can be). Is there any other place (apart from Whole Foods) that I can buy vegan cake from? Please respond directly to veenaachar as I get the daily digest only once a day...
