Sift the flour into a mixing bowl. Add sugar, baking powder, salt, and poppy seeds, and mix well. Let the ingredients blend nicely.
Add soy milk, oil, vinegar, vanilla, lemon extracts, and lemon zest, and mix. The batter is ready, avoid overmixing.
Divide the batter equally between the two cake pans. Now, it's time to send them to the oven!
Bake at 180°C for about 30 minutes. Check with a toothpick, if it comes out clean, the cakes are done!
Cool the cakes for a few minutes, then let them cool completely on a wire rack. Patience is key here!
Beat the vegan butter with a mixer until smooth. Now things are getting good!
Add powdered sugar, lemon extract, and lemon juice to achieve a fluffy frosting. A wonderful aroma awaits you.
Cover the cooled cakes with lemon frosting. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
