My Sweet Vegan


If you happen to be in Portland, Oregon this weekend, you should know about a very cool event happening at Herbivore.

What: Meet Hannah Kaminsky, author of My Sweet Vegan, and enjoy a dessert sampling
When: Sunday, June 29th at noon
Where: Herbivore Clothing Store in the Vegan Mini Mall, 1211 SE Stark Street, Portland, OR 97214

Hannah is the 19-year-old author and photographer of the decadent dessert book My Sweet Vegan. Each recipe includes a full-color photo to tease bakers-to-be into the kitchen.

Written and photographed during her senior year of high school, Kaminsky's book debut is an impressive and sophisticated addition to any cook's book collection, regardless of their inclination to veganism or not. Those with dairy allergies, a chocolate addiction or a desire to eat less cholesterol will be thrilled to check it out.

Recipes include: Triple Threat Chocolate Cheese Cake, Orange Dreamsicle Snack Cake, Brilliant Berry Parfaits, Pumpkin Toffee Trifle and Award-Winning Mocha Devastation Cake.

Hannah is currently working on her second vegan dessert cookbook. If you don't know about Hannah's super-cool blog, check it out at http://bittersweetblog.wordpress.com/

Vegan Noodle, you're going to have an awesome time in San Francisco! I can't wait to read all about it and see you pics!

Hi Melody! It is amazing that Hannah wrote the book in high school. She is so extremely talented.

Hi Amey. Please let me know when you come up this summer/fall, because it would be fun to meet up! Portland is a pretty cool place, but then so is Santa Cruz...
