Sweet P can't use this recipe as it contains milk & eggs. Her daughter is vegan....no animal products,  plus the gluten issue.

I had a similar recipe, but you have to replace the eggs & milk, even with some, the baking powder as it is made using bone meal, a animal product. . Milk is easy...., use almond/rice milk,  the eggs and baking powder, usually vinegar and baking soda for lift. I have used soy based "sour cream" to replace the eggs.

 Sweet P  .......  Below is the link my daughter sent me for the cake she uses. Only difference is she doesn't use earth balance for her icing, but organic palm shortening. She purchased that online. But I know vegans that use Crisco. It is acceptable, not a animal product.  Guessing you will be baking in N.Y.  Couldn't imagine you transporting a cake from Florida.

Thank you so much.  I'm going to forward this to her as well so she knows she has more options.

Good idea. Don't know if your daughter is a baker, but perhaps she could make this cake and see what she thinks of the taste & flavor?  Best of luck with the wedding and the cake. Oh, by the way, Lorann oils makes an amazing cheesecake flavoring.  That might fit the bill for daughters faux cheesecake cake request.  :o)
