I made the basic chocolate cupcakes from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World which I flavoured with mint, then I added peppermint icing and some chopped mint cremes to decorate. These are pretty much the same as I made for Daddy Alien's 60th Birthday 2 years ago.
I also made the Cookies & Cream variation of cupcakes except in the Basic Vanilla recipe instead of the Basic Chocolate. I had to buy special american mini oreos, as UK oreos are not vegan! BOO. But I think they came out pretty cute!
I found these in the American Aisle (which is basically 2 shelves) in my local big ass Tesco. Cute but they're £2.50 each and I had to buy 2 and I used them all!
This is my bro's 'creative' way to use up leftover minty icing, by putting it on the crispy cakes my mum made yesterday....
This then evolved to a double decker, mint creme topped, crispy sandwich of win!
And here's bellend creator himself enjoying the fruits of his labour!
I will leave you with a Jazzy pic. She actually laid there, still and looking at me and let me take 2 or 3 photos. This is her all snug and comfy on her favourite spot - on her blanky!
Have a great Saturday all!

What a bellend! That creation does look pretty epic though! I love the idea of topping mint chocolate cupcakes with a mint cream - I might steal that idea!
ReplyDeleteThose cupcakes look amazing.
ReplyDeleteWe've had an explosion of American markets here - I think we now have 4 (not including Lupe Pinto's) and 3 are in the city centre. Not one of them has vegan Oreos of any variety. Oh wait, I lie, one of them has the fudge-covered ones for £1.99 for a pack of 4.
Amazing. I wish mine were always so pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely cupcakes and hooray for your aunt making you something vegan, too!
ReplyDeleteI love that you call those things crispy cakes, we call them chocolate crackles!
Aww, Jazzy! That is so cool that your aunt made you vegan food! I bet your pretty cupcakes kicked the rest of the desserts' butt. That is quite a monster crispy sandwich! How on earth did your brother manage to open his mouth wide enough to eat it?!
