Cupcake Party
Yesterday Alana and I had our very first cupcake party. We bought all kinds of lime green and white tableware for the occasion. Alana surprised me with an early birthday present, a shiny red stand mixer. I finished two batches of cupcakes and icing in an hour, including time to wash utensils / mixing bowls / measuring apparatus in between! Baking will never be the same.
I made these awesome vegan lemon cupcakes from Bake and Destroy. Halving the recipe didn’t quite work out though, so my cupcakes didn’t fill the wrapper enough to ice them properly. I also did a batch of very un-vegan vanilla buttercream. In digging around for the recipes I found out Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World
I need to get a tripod so I don’t have to use a flash inside. I only managed to get two halfway decent pictures.
Next up: Cheesecake party.
Bummer! If you ever need a recipe I post halved, let me know, because I’m probably th one who doubled it in the first place!
Hey thanks a lot! Even though they didn’t come at as big as I’d hoped they were amazingly delicious. Everyone liked them better than my non-vegan cupcakes.
I always assume a lot of recipes I find online are from people making much larger quantities than I am, or caterers, so I’m not really surprised when something doesn’t translate quite right to a teeny batch
I might have to make these again soon, because I only got one before they were all gone!
Yeah, I just doubled the recipe because I was selling a dozen to a cafe but wanted another dozen for a friend’s party so I have the recipe for a dozen somewhere around here. If you want it, let me know and I’ll email it to you!
That would be awesome lady, thanks so much! I think my office is going to go crazy for them.
