I left LiveJournal for the greener pastures of Word Press. And I suppose I should combine this cupcake blog with my regular PPK blog, but I haven’t done that yet. Anyway, please add The PPK blog to all your stuff and all that. Here she is!
I’ll be adding all you bloggers to that one over the next few days, too. Stop yelling at me.




Can I still be a “people who deserve cupcakes”???? Pleeeeeese?

I’m so glad I found your site. There’s nothing like this in the UK that I can find to help us newbie vegans. My little girl and I love the PPK shows and wish you did more:O)

If you are in the New York area, I want to invite you to speak/demo at an informal veg forum at a popular athletic clothing store in Manhattan. Let me know, I think your presence would be a great way of getting the veggie word out!

I just made the banana split cupcakes for my brother’s birthday. They were nothing short of orgasmic.

I am shocked that I only discovered your blog last week. Now I’m reading all the backposts and trying out some recipes. Will keep you posted – thanks for the great vegan inspiration!

I am obsessed with cupcakes now, thanks to your book, and the health food store on the way home from work. I have baked, let’s see, probably a dozen dozens! That’s a gross amount! I invented my own pumpkin frosting to go on the basic chocolate cupcakes to share with my coworkers tomorrow. Suddenly, I’m the most popular guy! Thank you!

I love cup cakes. I am looking for instant food that I can prepare without spending a lot of time in the kitchen.
Comment by Rangoo Instant Food Lover — December 16, 2007 @ 1:38 am |
I really enjoy *Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World.* I’ve made the basic vanilla and chocolate cupcakes for parties. Each time, people WOW over them telling me they are the best cupcakes they have ever had. The cakes are very moist and the batter is yummy too all by itself raw self. My dairy phobic honey and good friends thank you. I even gave the book as a gift already. We all enjoy the text as much as the recipes.
It’s holiday baking time and we all look forward to trying the fancy cupcakes. Look for reviews on my blog The Vegetarian Review at http://vegreview.blogspot.com/ for vegetarian cookbook reviews and a few recipes.
All the best,
Heather

Don’t mean to be a jerk, but you may want to point readers to your book on Barnes and Noble or Powell’s Books instead of Amazon.
Amazon has a history of selling animal-fighting materials and refusing to stop when the Humane Society point the items out to them.
http://www.wave3.com/Global/story.asp?S=6948659
At the same time, Amazon has refused to sell some of the more militant vegetarian books, for fear of offending non-vegetarian customers.
Obviously, it’s your business. Just thought you should know.

Hello.
I see you haven’t blogged for awhile. I love your cookbook and I’ve blogged about it on my own site. I thought you might be interested. I’ve made a dozen recipes from it and none have failed. I try them out on my non-vegan friends and they’ve all passed.
Comment by marce merrell — April 4, 2008 @ 12:24 pm |
I just bought your cookbook and have been baking like crazy, the most I have in months. I love what I’ve created so far but have some questions. When it comes to cream cheese or tofu icing do the cupcakes need to be refrigerated or will they survive at room temperature?
Comment by Angela — April 7, 2008 @ 1:08 pm |
I love chocolate in and way or form. My favorite is Leonidas dark chocolate. Thanks for all the new ideas you give on chocolate.

There is nothing like a good Chicken Recipe, Chicken is quite simply the best food in the world because of it’s versatility. You can make thousands of chicken recipes and every one of them will be different and taste great. ENJOY!!

I learned to cook in self-defense as a child. While I haven’t tried them yet, your recipes look absolutely like something I would love. I’m kinda indiscrimate in what I’ll put in a cupcake, savory or sweet. My kids call ‘em “kitchen sink cupcakes.” What a visual huh?
Comment by Cliff, the smooth jazz man — April 15, 2008 @ 1:22 am |
I bought your cookbook a few weeks ago and was teased for buying a cookbook of nothing but cupcakes…that all changed after I made a dozen cookies ‘n’ creme cupcakes last night, though! I have given them to five of my friends now, and every one of them has been FLOORED…before I even told them they were vegan! Then they were absolutely amazed. I know they liked them, because not only did they rave about their moistness, but they licked and scraped every last bit of cupcake from the liner, using both their fingernails and their teeth. When one friend was done, her teeth and lips were covered in chocolate. Thank you for this absoutely spectacular cookbook! I rarely buy cookbooks because usually only a few recipes call to me, but every single recipe in this book looks fabulous and I can’t wait to try them all! And of course they all look great–who doesn’t love cupcakes?! Thank you thank you thank you!

Comment by Janel — June 11, 2008 @ 4:09 pm |
I hope someone can answer this for me… I’m having a bakery make my wedding cake, and while she gets the whole vegan/non-dairy/non-egg bit, she uses a lot of prepackaged fillings of which I’m not a huge fan. artificial yuck. So she said I could bring in my own homemade filling, and I’m planning to use the “saucy cherries” recipe from Vegan Cupcakes, and adding a little more arrowroot so it gets thick enough to not be a huge mess. (Ingredients: frozen cherries, sugar, arrowroot + juice, cooked down.) Any idea if I can make this ahead of time and freeze it? Or at least a few days ahead of time and refrigerate it? I definitely don’t want to be freaking out about cake sauce on the day before my wedding…. Thanks!

Can any/all of the cupcake recipes in Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World be made as cakes if you have enough batter? If you can make as a cake are there any tips necessary for success?
Thanks, Anne

Hi,
I just got your book and am planning to make the hazelnut cupcake and the blackforest, or key lime cup cake and ship the cupcakes to Hawaii- will they last 3-4 days in the mail?
Are they good refrigerated and then brought out, when needed?
Thanks.
Jutika
Comment by Jutikadevi Sivarajq — October 6, 2008 @ 4:52 pm |
I made your Pineapple right-side up cupcakes and they didn’t turn out.
1. In following the recipe exactly, I still only had enough batter for 6 cupcakes each filled half way full in the pan.
2. I set the oven at 350F and started to bake them for 25 min. and they still where gooey in the center. After a total of 35 min they remained gooey in the center and nicely browned on the top.
Any suggestions would help..

I just LOVE your new cookbook VEGANOMICON!!! Just got it for Christmas & I’ve already cooked 4 of the recipes. I have a question about the Pineapple-Cashew-Quinoa Stir-fry…..it says to remove the cashews from the pan after they’ve been toasted, but when do you ADD them back in to the mixture? It doesn’t say! Please let me know!
THANKS! Congrats!

In the book Vegan Cupcakes Takeover the world
Are the recipes in this book free of nuts? Or do alot of the recipes require nuts? Our daughter has allergies to Dairy, Eggs and nuts.

It was about time for me to take over the world, so I decided to arm myself with your weapon of choice: the vegan cupcake! I have committed myself to baking one different recipe every day and I already feel the world caving in to my desires. Amazing! My family loves me more every day. They especially loved me on the day I baked Crimson Velveteen cupcakes. Thanks for the inspiration and directions to taking over the world. I promise to be a benevolent ruler.

Here is Australia our SPCA, the RSPCA, has a national cupcake day to raise money. I made 265 VEGAN cupcakes using your recipes (with my own little tweeks of course!). They were not only THE BEST cupcakes I’ve ever made, the recipes were the most consistent…time and time and time again! People who bought them didn’t know they were vegan…until AFTER they raved about how they were the best ever…then I let them know! Now EVERYONE wants the recipes! Thank you thank you thank you! Vegan cupcakes ROCK!!!

Dear Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero,
This year the Run4Rett event, a 5k Run/Walk and 1k Fun Run/Walk will be held on Saturday, October 17th, 2009 at the Richmond Green Park in Richmond Hill. This is our fifth year and all funds raised are directed to the Ontario Rett Syndrome Association (ORSA) (www.rett.ca).
In 2008, over 425 people participated in the event and more than $50,000 was raised. It is through the generous support of our participants and sponsors that we were able to direct vital funds towards research to continue to work to find a cure for Rett Syndrome.
Rett Syndrome is caused by a random genetic mutation and it is considered to be a severe neurological disorder and it affects 1:10,000 female births. It is often misdiagnosed as autism, cerebral palsy, or a non-specific developmental delay. Many girls experience seizures, scoliosis and the inability to communicate verbally. Girls and women with Rett Syndrome are dependent on their families and/or caregivers for life.
For 2009, we are asking for your support through the donation of 1 copy of your book, “Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World” to be used as a raffle prize or silent auction item. It is with in-kind support such as your donation that we can continue to generate vital fundraising dollars for research, clinic development and therapy treatments. In return for your donation, we will recognize your contribution on race day.
We appreciate your support more than ever in these challenging times. It is through the generosity of our corporate supporters such as yourself that we are able to continue to help girls and women with Rett Syndrome achieve their fullest potential and enjoy the highest quality of life.
Thank you for your consideration. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
April Bonia
Fundraising Coordinator

I have the cupcake cookbook and have a question about the Brooklyn Brownie cupcakes receipe. Step 5 says fill the liners full with batter. I did this and they overflowed in the oven. Is that a typo or did I do something wrong?
Thanks.
