Gulab Jamun Cake Recipe | Eggless Gulab Jamun Cake recipe with step-by-step pictures and instructions. Gulab jamun cake is an Indian fusion cake with one of the most popular desserts Gulab Jamun. This eggless cake is so soft, moist, spongy, and flavorful. Plain vanilla cake is flavored with cardamom and sugar syrup from Gulab jamun and decorated with cream, nuts, and Gulab Jamun.

Notes
I place parchment on all sides while decorating so anything spilled can be removed easily.
Always cool the cake completely before cutting or decorating
If you use the oven, preheat the oven to 180°C and bake at the same temperature for 40-45 minutes until the toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Baking time will vary so always keep an eye after 40 minutes
You can completely skip the cream and use only Gulab Jamun for decorations too.
