GirlGetStrong.com, 4/30/10
“Another gem by Isa Moskowitz, this cupcake bible includes 75 different recipes for cupcake batter and frosting…Vegan Cupcakes will tantalize and inspire, especially with the beautiful photos of each recipe.”

The Auburn Citizen, 12/29/10
“Will satisfy almost everyone's sweet tooth and visions of sugarplums.”
iVillage.com, 1/18/11“These [Peanut Butter] cupcakes are pushed to maximum peanuty capacity and still remain moist and fluffy. Chunky peanut butter, molasses and flaxseed give them an intense flavor and nutty texture.”
iVillage.com, 1/18/11
“[The Sexy Low-Fat Vanilla Cupcakes are] vanilla-scented gems.”

The RetailMeNot Insider, 5/23/11“Granted, these authors aren't on restricted diets due to allergies or celiac disease, but their wildly inventive vegan desserts are dairy- and egg-free, and they have a whole section on how to make cookies without wheat.”

BizIndia.net, 11/21/11
“Isa and Terry deserve top marks with for this unique collection of highly creative recipes for out-of-this-world cupcakes. Get your copy now, get cookin' and get tremendous satisfaction from making these unusual cupcakes.”

VegNews, September/October 2012“Marks an important milestone for veganism in that it proved to the mainstream that vegan food can be awesome.”

Vegan Cupcakes Have Taken Over My World!

ByAG Pymon January 4, 2007

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I love love LOVE this book. The recipes are simple and perfect, every time; I have had VCTOtW for about a month and a half now, and despite at least weekly bakings, haven't had a single recipe fail yet. Not one. Since I bought it I seriously can't stop baking and am beginning to fear for my waistline!

I would like to second another reviewer who pointed out that the recipes don't ask you to use egg replacers or other "substitutions" common in vegan baking (usually because someone is trying to veganize a non-vegan recipe); instead, the recipes are just designed vegan from the ground up, and call for simple ingredients that anyone would have (oil, baking powder, etc.). Also, there are tons of beautiful color pictures of finished cupcakes throughout, which is one of the most important things about a cookbook, to me. Then, too, they suggest enough variations on each cupcake recipe (there's 6 suggested ways to dramatically alter the chocolate cupcake recipe alone) that this book will keep you occupied for quite a long time.

Since every baker likes a little external validation, here's mine: I have gotten absolute raves on every cupcake I have made so far, and most of these raves were from non-vegans who were comparing my vegan cupcakes with regular [non-vegan] cupcakes. For example, last night I fed a chocolate cupcake with cookies 'n cream frosting (vegan buttercream frosting with Newman's O's mixed in... this is a recipe from the book, obviously) to a friend who didn't just enjoy it, but was absolutely WOWED. "Geeze, it's amazing what they're doing without dairy or eggs these days; these are better than regular cupcakes" was one comment that I particularly appreciated because most vegan desserts can taste good, but in my experience it's the rare vegan dessert that can taste identical or even BETTER than the regular omni thing.

I would recommend this book to anyone, vegans and omni's alike, because even if you're not vegan (or lactose intolerant), the cupcakes taste fabulous. The recipes are so simple they're basically idiot-proof, and I have seriously never in my life had better chocolate cupcakes than the ones I made from this book: moist and fluffy and ooh... just perfect. And I'm not even a chocolate person.

Anyway, do yourself (and everyone in your life who will be eating your baked goods) a favor and buy this wonderful book! I'd give it 10 stars if they'd let me...

its just not really suited for it but I got it to work and they are the most delicious and beautiful cupcakes I have ever made

ByTed Nitzon August 30, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I made the oreo cupcakes in this book and they were delicious. They cooked up perfectly and you would never lose in a taste test between these vegan cupcakes and a non vegan version. The frosting took a little extra work I think I will not use the kitchenaid for that again, its just not really suited for it but I got it to work and they are the most delicious and beautiful cupcakes I have ever made. I do wish they said how long to curdle the soy milk, my vegan friend said thats the only thing she finds important is you curdle long enough, so I did so for 10 minutes after whisking the soy milk and vinegar and they came out perfect. I am not vegan nor will I ever be, but i'm also not sure I will ever make non vegan cupcakes again.

Best Cupcake Book - Vegan or Not

ByCaitlin R.on January 17, 2015

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Holy moley. I bought this book in a pinch. I didn't do a lot of research, just knew I wanted to make cupcakes my friends could eat. I read a few reviews and was really happy to hear that the recipes weren't full of the usual "egg replacer" strategies that have you putting funky ingredients into your baked goods. I'm convinced Moskowitz is a wizard, as I made two different cupcakes and two different frostings tonight. The recipes were straight forward. I knew ahead of time what staple pantry items I would need to make almost every recipe. I had most already. The cupcakes came out AMAZING. The icings... I have never made one better. I made the gingerbread cupcakes and opted for the lemony buttercream frosting. I also made the vanilla cupcakes (using canola oil) with the chocolate buttercream.
The directions are simple, and fast. The prelude before the recipe section really sets up up well for baking exceptional cupcakes, not just vegan cupcakes. And there were no "pintrest fails". You can easily make your cupcakes look like the pictures. I highly recommend this anyone looking for a solid cupcake recipe book, vegan or not.
