As with Vegan Cookies, Vegan Cupcakes Is NOT a health food book. It’s a baking book, a cupcake book, and not a healthy cupcakes book, but a book about how to make delicious and decadent cupcakes the way we’re used to. It’s a book full of classic recipes and innovative ones. Stuff that’ll really knock the socks off even your most die-hard omnivore friends. I know, because I’ve done it. I’ve made many a cupcake from this book, and impressed all of my omnivore friends and family, never one complaint and always requests to bake them more!
Like Vegan cookies this is a lovely little book with a great lay-out and beautiful photography. Not every cupcakes has a photo but the photos that do exist are beautiful and mouth-watering. Isa and Terry detail their instructions in a clear and concise way that is easy to follow. They make it easy for novice bakers and their wit and sarcasm make it fun for old-hands. Really I think there is something for everyone in this book, and even though I use a lot of different books for baking, this is one of my all-time favorites. I wouldn’t hesitate to gift it to a vegan friend or omnivore friend. I only wish I had more time - and more room in my stomach - to make every recipe, but so far I’ve made the following.

Let's also say that while I consider myself a good cook, until recently my experiences with baking had been somewhat disappointing. I decided to change that, especially because of my oldest daughter. There seems to be a birthday, bake sale or celebration of some kind every other week at her school, and I wanted her to be able to enjoy something without the stomach upset that almost invariably follows dairy and wheat consumption. I decided to start with cupcakes because they are less threatening than cake (to me, the inexperienced baker) and kids love them (and so do most adults).
I chose this book based on the reviews, and I am very glad I did! I have now made cupcakes a few times and I am very happy with the results. I was able to make very good vegan, gluten-free vanilla cupcakes for a school celebration and absolutely scrumptious sugar-free (agave-sweetened) chocolate cupcakes for a brunch, and got rave reviews both times.
The book gives very clear instructions in the recipes, clear explanations of the ingredients to chose in the introductory section, and it even includes troubleshooting tips for all of us new to baking cupcakes, which are absolutely brilliant because I was able to immediately pinpoint and correct the reason why my first cupcakes had sunk (oven temperature).
The book also features numerous recipes that range from the classic cupcakes like Vanilla and Chocolate, to some very fun, made-to-impress recipes like Cookies 'n' Cream Cupcakes, Tiramisù Cupcakes and Chocolate Cherry Crème Cupcakes (and more) to the adventurous and interesting like Green Tea Cupcakes with Green Tea Glaze and Almond Flowers, Chai Latte Cupcakes or Pistachio Rosewater Cupcakes, sure to attract attention at your next party and make you known as "the one with the delicious cupcakes" from the very first time around.
If I had one issue with this book would be that the recipes include a bit too much sugar, but I was quickly mollified by the fact that the authors include clear instructions to modify the recipes so they can be made with Agave Syrup instead - and also include a recipe for Agave-sweetened vanilla or chocolate cupcakes, and one for Agave-sweetened icing. I also appreciate that they included a recipe for gluten-free cupcakes, thereby giving some guidance for adventurous cooks who are ready to modify the other recipes in the book the same way.
So for all these reasons (and more, because I'm peretty sure I forgot something!), I give this book 5 stars, a rare occurrence but fully deserved!!

Avrei preferito una foto per ogni ricetta proposta, giusto per avere un termine di paragone, comunque questo dato non sminuisce in alcun modo il mio eccellente giudizio.
Le ricette sono tutte valide, ne ho provate diverse e non ho mai dovuto correggere le dosi degl' ingredienti. Io utilizzo le teglie per cupcake della wilton e devo dire che per queste teglie la quantità d'impasto che si produce a volte è sufficiente solo per 11 cupcakes anziché 12.
Una cosa che ho notato è questa. Non essendo vegana, mi sono accostata a questi libri perchè amo i dolci e ho diverse intolleranze sia ai latticini che alle uova. ho notato che l approccio a questi dolci è molto diverso da quello ai dolci classici che prevedono l'utilizzo delle uova, è tutto molto più semplice e la resa è diversa altrettanto. I cupcakes sono più umidi e glasse e frosting più morbidi, perchè le varie margarine e burro di soia non hanno la stessa consistenza del burro normale.
Mi è piaciuta moltissimo la ricetta dei cupcakes al Maple Syrup, a mio avviso la più buona e ho trovato interessante, molto gradevole quella al tiramisù.
I have a vegan friend, and am not vegan myself, in fact im not even vegatarian, BUT I do love cake. My friend showed me some of her recipies from this book, and I love them so much I am buying this book for myself, because quite honestly the recipies are delicous and simple even for a non vegan types like myself, and are really handy to have when making any cakes for anyone who cant eat eggs or milk for any reason (ie those with allergys, or are vegan).
Simply put this book is brilliant, once you've triend some of the cakes from here there's no going back!
