But I don’t care. I have such nostalgia when it comes to figs, reminds me of growing up and going to my grandparents’ house. They always had figs, and grapes! I loved eating figs as a kid. So yes, I love baked goods with figs in them.

I am a huge Vegan Cheesecake lover. However, I do have a problem with the name “cheesecake”. It doesn’t taste like cheesecake at all. I think we should change the name to Cashewcake, who’s with me? But SEO dictates nobody will find me in search engines if I start calling my recipe that, so I’m going to stick to calling it vegan cheesecake for now.
