Rose Milk Cakes are soft, airy treats soaked in a luscious rose-scented syrup and topped with whipped cream and edible rose petals. These romantic and elegant milk cakes offer a floral twist on a classic dessert, perfect for teatime, spring gatherings, or Valentine’s Day indulgence.

Ingredients

For the Cake:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 3/4 cup almond milk (or dairy-free milk)

  • 1/4 cup neutral oil (canola or sunflower)

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 teaspoon rose water

  • A few drops natural pink food coloring (optional)

For the Rose Milk Syrup:

  • 1 cup coconut milk or other dairy-free milk

  • 1/4 cup sweetened condensed coconut milk (or regular condensed milk)

  • 1 tablespoon rose water

  • 1-2 drops pink food coloring

For Topping:

  • Whipped coconut cream or vegan whipped topping

  • Dried edible rose petals or mini dried rosebuds

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease ramekins or a muffin tin.

  2. In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and salt.

  3. In another bowl, whisk together almond milk, oil, sugar, vanilla, rose water, and pink food coloring. Gradually mix in dry ingredients until smooth.

  4. Pour batter into prepared ramekins, filling them halfway.

  5. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool slightly.

  6. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, gently warm coconut milk, sweetened condensed coconut milk, rose water, and food coloring (do not boil).

  7. Invert cakes onto serving plates and poke with a skewer to help absorb syrup.

  8. Spoon warm rose milk syrup slowly over each cake. Chill for at least 30 minutes.

  9. Before serving, top with whipped coconut cream and garnish with edible rose petals.

Notes

  • Use silicone molds or ramekins for easy release.

  • For extra floral notes, add a drop of orange blossom water.

  • These can be made a day ahead—just add topping before serving.

  • Pairs wonderfully with rose tea or cardamom chai.
