On Saturday we’ll be doing a food demo at the Boston Veg Food Fest and afterwards cupcakes for the masses! We’ll have a huge mini cupcake tower. I mean a huge cupcake tower filled with mini cupcakes because “mini cupcake tower” sounds redundant. And we will be handing them out to you, the consumer. Talk about value added savings.

Here are some really great Halloween cupcake decorating instructions, a zombie zoo!
Marzipan is a delicious and vegan way to dress up cupcakes, and it goes well with either chocolate or vanilla.
But please remember that if you choose to adopt a purebred cupcake, make it a rescue.

Maple cupcakes with candied walnuts are perfect for fall. Here is mine all dolled up and ready to go to the New Jersey Vegtoberfest picnic. Does everyone have plates shaped like leaves? It seems like the entirety of the internet has the exact same plates as me.
While there I discovered a non-cupcake object (NCO) that was so luscious that I have to post about it. They’re called “Potato Candy” but really they taste just like macaroons, you would never guess that there was potato in it. They were brought by Debya who apparently got the recipe years ago from Emiko at Food Fight.
Potato Candy
• 3/4 cup mashed potatoes — cold
• 4 cups confectioner’s sugar (make your own confectioner’s/powdered sugar: 1 cup raw sugar + ¼ cup cornstarch in yo’ food processor)
• 4 cups shredded, not sweetened coconut
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 squares baking chocolate (sweet or semisweet)
Mix potatoes and confectioner’s sugar. Stir in coconut, vanilla and salt. Blend well. Press into one large or two small pans, so candy will be 1/2 inch thick. Melt chocolate over hot water, do not let water boil. Pour chocolate on top of candy, cool and cut in squares. For variations, make haystacks by forming white mixture into cones 1 inch high. Allow to stand uncovered for 20 minutes. Dip base of each cone in melted chocolate. Place on waxed paper until chocolate hardens. Yields about 100 haystacks (I gave up after 60).

Webly was a tester for Vegan Cupcakes so she has a lot of cupcake photos over on her blog Fueled by Popcorn. The one that struck me the most was this vanilla one with lemon frosting, baked in an ice cream cone.
Baking your cupcakes in ice cream cones is one sure-fire way of getting attention, but there isn’t anything about it in Vegan Cupcakes, most of all because it’s sort of a crapshoot. But I think it’s a safe enough subject to discuss from the comfort of the internet.
I’m not sure if this is indeed what Webly did, but the general rules are:
1) Use vegan wafer cones with a flat bottom. “Let’s Do Organic” is one brand that makes them.
2) For support, wrap a ring of tinfoil around the cones, close to the bottom, and place them in the cupcake tin so that they stand up straight. The wrapped ice cream cones should fit snugly into their place.
3) Fill cones less than 2/3rds full. The greatest danger is that the batter will spill over and ruin everything. The second greatest danger is that the batter will seep through the cone, and so the less batter you use the less heavy it will be thus less chance of that happening.
4) And finally, if the batter looks too liquid-y, add another handful of flour. The more watery the batter the more chance it has of seeping through the cone, so defy the recipe and make the batter a little thicker, if necessary. The batter shouldn’t quickly drip from a spoon, it should be slow and lava-like.
Here’s a recipe that discusses how to do it, but I think I may have explained it a little bit better. In any case, it’s still a cute recipe.

Another vegan cupcake blog, but just for cupcakes from VCTOW. So we’re not too worried.

Is this or is this not the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? Right, say no more, it’s the cutest thing you’ve ever seen.
Cupcakes are a great way to teach kids how to bake because they can get their individual cakes to decorate. And just think of all the great lessons that cupcakes will espouse – arts and crafts, science, patience, cooperation, not to mention the crucial heavy metal face skills that will carry your child well into adulthood.
