I have 10 cakes to make for a birthday party. 10 tables of 10 people. One cake per table. The birthday woman would like the cakes to be on a crispy base crust. Because of the number of people, we want to avoid possible nut allergies and the only recipes I’m finding out there include hazelnut or almond. Any suggestions? I found chocolate chip cookie bases but the cake will be vanilla with buttercream and a salted caramel drip so that won’t work. Thanks!
Just had a thought. What about a Nanaimo bar crust? The chocolate taste wouldn’t work, I think, though. Any thoughts on what I could replace it with? I’ll need the bulk (flour?!). It’ll have crushed graham crackers and coconut for texture and crunch. For a vanilla/caramel cake, I could add Caramel flavouring but to replace the cocoa? Ideas?

Great idea with the cereal base, Laetia. Rice Krispie Treats are made with marshmallows, butter and Rice Krispies and the taste is very a mild vanilla, so no clashing. They are very sturdy and crispy too.
Also, you could make the Rice Krispie Treats using melted white chocolate as the binder, instead of marshmallows. Personally, I don't think the chocolate chip cookie would clash with the vanilla/caramel cake.
Have you considered a feuilletine base? Super crunchy...can have nuts incorporated but you could add other flavors instead..
(what’s with the weird fonts?!?!)
