cupcake city


The only good thing starbuck's ever did, other than give my darling baby sister a job, was create instant coffee that isn't disgusting. They have made vegan coffee buttercream possible. So now my dream of vegan mocha cupcakes has been realized.
I used the chocolate cupcake recipe from Vegan with a vengence and made the frosting from 1 cup of earth balance, 2/12 cups of powdered sugar, 1 tsp of vanilla, and 1 packet of Starbuck's instant coffee dissolved in 1 Tablespoon of water.

It was a good friend's going away party so I also made her favorite peanut butter chocolate cupcakes and coconut lime. They really eased the pain of losing another wonderful pal to the lure of New York.
