Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 375F.
Grease two 6-inch circular cake pans with coconut oil and place parchment paper on the bottom.
In a large basin, thoroughly mix flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt.
In a blender, combine the dates, water, almond butter, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth. Transfer the blended mixture to the flour mixture and stir until well combined. Add the cider vinegar and whisk until bubbles appear.
After filling the prepared pans with cake batter, bake them.
Cakes should be baked for 25 to 30 minutes, or until they are set and a toothpick put into the centre comes out virtually clean. around 25 to 30 minutes. Take out of the oven, allow to cool fully, then remove the moulds and place them onto two plates, cover, and store.
All of the ingredients for the frosting should be combined in a high-speed blender and blended until very smooth. Transfer into a bowl and refrigerate until it reaches the consistency of stiffly whipped cream, which may take up to 45 minutes, depending on the temperature.
Once ready, put it in the refrigerator until you're ready to assemble.
To assemble, place one cake layer onto a tray and spread about 3/4 cup of frosting over it. Place the second cake layer on top of the first and spread the leftover icing down the sides and over the top of the cake.
After adding a few glitter, tuck in!
