Chocolate Orange Cake GF and Vegan

Chocolate Orange Cake is gluten free, and free of refined sugars. The sweetness comes from the dates ,oranges , maple syrup and dark chocolate. I try to find a dark chocolate that is as clean as possible. Add a little oil to the melted chocolate before spreading to prevent cracking when it hardens.
Easy to make , no baking required and delicious!
