Vegan/plant Based Red Velvet Cupcake recipe & Tutorial | Cupcake Jemma

[@macaoron]

There can never be too many vegan recipes! Love how you completely omitted the egg substitute, which makes the ingredients very easy to find across the world!

[@irinavoicu3412]

I have made these for Christmas parties, gatherings and for my family and everybody absolutely adored these, they dissapeared from the plates instantly and nobody thought they were vegan. I have some more in the oven right now, 11/10 recipe

[@nicbertelli]

I’ve been testing vegan cake recipes this week. I make like 8 cakes. Well, let me tell you, it was the best cake I made. Instead of cupcakes I baked everything in a cake pan for about 50 minutes, and it was fluffy and moist! I rate this recipe ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@Hannah_jp_93]

Just thought I’d add a quick note that not all red food colouring is vegan. The one Jemma uses in this video is but if they contain Carmine or cochineal they are not. Would hate for people to go to the trouble of baking lovely cupcakes only for them not to be vegan!

[@serendipity9657]

yes! i feel like not enough people know this

[@genemechanic6773]

This is exactly what I thought when she mentioned the red paste

[@benjespina]

Nothing like dead bugs to color your cupcakes. Ive read that some products are even 17-22% dead insects. Ugh. Why do people even do this???

[@xolio1993]

Exactly! I was just about to comment this. If you don’t know what carmine/cochineal is, it’s basically where red food colouring is made from dead red.. bugs! It’s used more than you think, make sure yours is a chemically produced red (or natural but could have a less vibrant result)!

[@lidiaalmeida2528]

Here's a tip if you want similar decoration as the grated red on top: smash some dry raspberries or strawberries (I buy it from the regular supermarket) and sprinkle on top. It's natural and the color is amazing, plus it gives great balance to the sweet taste of most icings. At our bakery we use it for almost every decoration from pavlovas to wedding cakes :)

[@jellybeanabanana5245]

in case anyone was doubting the amazingness of this recipe, i can confirm it is very much delicious, and moist, and soft, and amazing, and the icing (which generally i dont like the taste of when its vegan bc it just tastes weird) goes well with the cupcakes its just delicious

[@peanut1613]

Who else can't get enough of Jemma she is awesome love your videos .

[@NinskuuB]

I just tried these and they turned out great! In case some else is wondering too: I didn't have cider vinegar or bicarbonate soda so I just left them out and put a bit more baking powder. I also did only half a batch of the vegan buttercream and added 80g melted chocolate (instead of lemon juice). It was more than enough :D. Would love to see more vegan recipes!

[@njso8613]

I've done this recipe and it was a huge success! I often find vegan cakes/cupcakes too dense or greasy, but this was just perfect, thanks Jemma!!!

[@monagandhi6783]

Did you measure liquid ingredients in gms (as mentioned in the recipe)?

[@njso8613]

@@monagandhi6783 yes , I do ... and it's still my "go to" red velvet cupcakes recipe, it works very well . I use silk classic soy milk :)

[@MandyR0116]

I’m so excited you’re doing a vegan recipe!! I will try these tonight :)

[@kerriemaher2822]

I just made these for all the vegans at work and everyone (not just the vegans) has commented on how moist they are. So good, thanks for the recipe

[@richardwillis5033]

I have made this recipe twice (I'm not vegan). It turns out great and everyone loves it. I used almond milk, which I make. Great recipe!

[@seemoonkey]

these are perfect!! i’ve made them a few times and they taste amazing and they’re so SOFT. i make them with a vegan cream cheese icing and i love them :]

[@irmaespinoza2827]

The longer you are on KZbin the crazier you get and I love it!!!

[@bjorn874]

I think she's getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera. I love it! She's unedited like most KZbinrs, I have such a crush on her personality 😅

[@kingofgames3280]

Hi Jenna.I tried your recipe and it was delicious and fluffy.The only thing I added was more four table spoons of flour because with only 200g of flour my composition did not have the same structure like in the video after I added more flour was the same.Thank you for your delicious recepies .

[@Ch33kyAniisahX]

I love how even though its vegan there are no weird ingredients. It's so simple! I need to make these.

[@kevinervin3653]

Made these cakes today, but forgot the cocoa Whoops ,cakes still taste great,added some jelly skulls from M+S (vegan ) for Halloween party , look amazing with a good rise ! Love watching the videos as I bake ! Great channel xxLou

[@babydee9042]

Hey Jemma I really like your KZbin channel and it has inspired me to make vegan version of your already exsisting cupcakes. I don't know if they sell it were you are from but if u add spectrum vegetable shortening to the icing it will make it stiffer without adding so much sugar. I am a vegan Baker and I do 1 part veg spread to 2 parts veg shortening. Hope this helps with future recipes. 😉

[@Hannah_jp_93]

I do something similar with a mix of vegetable spread and shortening and I agree it turns out great!

[@EarvinVicente]

Same

[@macaoron]

I guess she took your advice! Her new video now uses 1:1 spread to shortening.

[@foxyrox11231987]

Maxwell Fong which video is this? I am going to make a vegan buttercream today and want to view her video beforehand.

[@theresuga]

UK has copha which is a veg shortening but it's rock hard, harder than a coconut oil. They don't have a Crisco style shortening

[@sarahsahara3527]

Finally a vegan recipe from someone who does not use all those fancy and special ingredients like flax seeds etc.

[@sanne4419]

How is flax seed fancy? It's really affordable and available almost everywhere.

[@raynah6815]

Sanne no not everywhere and i think she meant ingredients that u normally have at home

[@sanne4419]

@@raynah6815 Makes sense. It's just that a lot of of vegans eat flaxseeds daily, so most of them already have some at home.

[@puppy555jj4]

use chia there super cheep at a normal shops and really easy to find

[@thatveganmuslim]

Flax seeds are much cheaper than chia seeds

C&D shop is amazing. I went about 8 months ago and I swear. There’s so much choice!! I had a salted caramel cupcake and was in my ELEMENT. they’re beautiful x.

I tried one of these last time I came to the shop and was hoping there would be a recipe one day. Thank you!

[@sleepycat8887]

Thank you for this recipe, will be trying it this week. I keep shying away from making vegan cakes but so many customers ask me that I need to get on with it lol. I keep wishing that you showed us the consistency of the cupcake crumb just to compare it to non vegan. The buttercream looks delish and not much different to the eye in consistency. Definitely will try it. Thanks again. 🧁

[@popelgruner595]

Excellent, thank you Jemma! Comes in handy for us who are lactose intolerant too. 😃

[@ammarah7750]

Literally me 😃

[@danielanyvltova9749]

Finally vegan! It is about time! Kudos to you for reducing the animal suffering! Beautiful looking cupcakes! There is a way to make a butttercream without so much sugar and yes, there is a vegan cream cheese as well.

Hi Jemma this is fantastic and just what I need! I'm 4 months into chemotherapy and still trying to run my cake business, although having to scale things down a bit now as side effects really taking their toll! I have two more weddings left to do (not taking on anymore now till next year - is too much now) but one of my customers just sprang on me that her wedding cupcakes (due in 3 weeks) all have to be vegan and I've never made vegan velvet cupcakes before (she actually wants orange velvet so I've bought Sugarflair extra orange which I presume will work as well as the red) - I immediately searched for one of your recipes as I know your cakes are amazing and I totally trust your recipes if ever I get stuck for something I haven't made before! I know this was posted a few years ago and you may not be able to reply but I wondered how well this recipe does if you triple the ingredients as I need to make a batch of 36? I know when I triple up some of mine I don't use quite 3 x of the baking powder/soda, and salt but thought I'd ask as I expect you do really large quantities in your bakery? Thanks so much Michelle :-) x

[@WilliamsKitchenEN]

Yes another Vegan recipe, love it!! 😍😍

this is great for those who can't have eggs, can't wait to bake these amazing cupcakes. thanks jemma

[@katsleggsful]

Oh how I wish I had this recipe 2 weeks ago. I had to make a cake which was dairy and peanut free. I used vegetable shortening in both the batter and frosting. It came out good but the flavor sacrifice of only having vanilla was sad to me. This would have been so much better!

[@CraftnCreations]

Hello everyone, By any chance does anyone know if the vinegar she used is Apple cider vinegar? Thank you!

[@judygomez3919]

Hello there....question....I am making a strawberry cake, and have sub'd the 2 cups of water the recipe calls for, for 2 cups of puree'd strawberries. I have also added some non flavor red food coloring to the puree to make the batter more red. Issue.....i am finding that the food coloring separates during baking. In other words, when I take cupcake liners off, the outside of the cupcake has a brown color to it, and when i cut the cupcake in half, all the red color has "risen" to the top and there is a small layer of brown at the bottom of cupcake. Any suggestions on how to fix, or any idea what is going on during baking?

Hi Cupcake Jemma! I’m a huge fan and a chronically ill baker - your videos are a huge help and your recipes are the best I’ve ever tasted :) I was just wondering if you could replace the soya milk with almond as I’m allergic to soya. Or if that affects the way it comes together? Also which food paste would you recommend as I’ve tried the Wilton ones before and they didn’t create the right colour and then affected the consistency! Any help would be much appreciated :) xx
