want them to be able to eat birthday cake too. I'm making a cup cake tower as bday cake. is there a recipe I can use so invitee can have bday cake in his party bag or do I just find a suitable cake for him in tesco?

hi ther , i'm sur you can use powdered egg, would need to double check though

trixymalixy · 20/04/2009 23:17

I don't think Tesco do an egg free cupcake. they may do gluten free cakes, but they don't tend to exclude egg from gluten free products unfortunately.

You can buy egg replacer, but that would be a bit much for one cupcake!!!

I tend to use cold custard and extra baking powder to replace the egg, i can't remember the exact quantities, but will look them up in my book tomorrow for you.

My LO is egg intolerant and he would not eat cake even if you swore it was egg free took much training - if the LO isn;t used to it he might not like it ? Perhasps do a choc crispy bun for them ?

Or something like a Mr Kiplings apple pie and stick the icing on top ?

Best chocolate cupcake recipe ever. In American measures, I'm afraid but I make this even when I don't need to make egg/ dairy free cakes.

Makes 12

1 c milk
1 tsp vinage (red wine// apple cider)
¾ cup white sugar
1/3 c canola/ veg oil
1.5 tsp vanilla
1 c flour
1/3 c cocoa
¾ tsp bicarb soda
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt

350

Whisk milk & vinegar, leave to curdle
Add sugar, oil, vanilla, beat til foamy
Sift dry stuff
Add in two batches to wet til mixed
Pour ¾ into cups

Bake at 350 for 20 mins or so

Yes, it is vinegar

I have used balsamic and it worked fine.

made them. they are gorgeous. thanks. will certainly make more. oh, I must have small cake tins as mixture made 24 buns.

Am glad they worked. They are for American cupcakes which are usually done in a big muffin tin so if you used a normal British fairy cake tin, I suppose it would make more. I'd rather have 24 small ones anyway - that way I can eat 2 and feel less greedy
