We had this cake for Naomi's birthday this year, her little friend is allergic to eggs and milk, just so you know, I didn't frost her little friend's cupcake (since obviously the frosting isn't dairy free!). I also lowered the sugar in this cake, and was really happy with how it tasted.Egg Free & Dairy Free Vanilla Cake
2 1/3 c. flour
1 TB baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. oil
1/2 c. applesauce
1 c. applejuice
1 tsp vanilla
Mix everything thoroughly, pour into a 9" x 13" baking dish (or two 8" round pans or a 24 muffin pan), greased. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. (About 30 minutes for cupcakes.)
Cream Cheese and Maple Frosting
1 8oz pk cream cheese, softened
1/3 c. pure maple syrup
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix together until smooth, spread onto cake.

Happy Birthday to Naomi! The cake looks great...can't wait to try it. I wonder if a whole wheat version would work.
I think it would work, soft wheat would definitely work better.
From what I've found cakes are a bit dense when I use wheat, so if I put it in things like this, I just substitute 1/2 of the flour with wheat.
YUM! Looks great, I'll try making it some time. :-) Thanks for linking up!
You should set up a catering business if you haven't already.
Those cup cakes look really delicious.
