There are countless cake baking mixes on the market and Elia is setting itself apart with a trio of new options specifically for making olive oil cakes. The Vanilla with a Hint of Lemon, Dark Chocolate & Espresso and Grecian (citrus and almond) olive oil cake mixes all come with a perfectly portioned bottle of organic Greek extra virgin olive oil for making delicious, moist cakes conveniently at home.
These Mediterranean-inspired cake mixes pride themselves on being both simple and sophisticated and they come together thanks to ingredients like unbleached, unbromated flour, cane sugar, aluminum-free baking powder, citrus zest and more. These cakes can also be adapted for plant-based eating with binders like flax eggs.
