Food #03, a vegetarian eatery has a guest chef programme. I was invited on the 1st of November to be a guest chef to commemorate World Vegan Day. I made green tea, mango, choc-vanilla and coconut-lime cupcakes for this event. However, I did experience a series of kitchen disasters! The first batch of green tea deflated on me! And by the time I finished doing the mango cupcakes it was four in the morning. Since it was made with a pudding centre I wanted to keep it in the fridge. Guess what! In the process I toppled the entire thing and it was four in the morning! I screamed so loud that my hubby woke up. In the end, he cleaned up the huge frosting mess and I sat there stoned and stunned! Without knowing what to do, I decided to sleep and do another batch in the morning! However, it was a fantastic opportunity to meet up with friends and make new friends as well! Thanks peep for coming down to support!

Looks great, Halimah! I was too late to join you, but I had Fang Qi to bring me three of your lovely creations. He he! Thanks!
I ate the marble cupcake! In about ten seconds flat. How do you make that chocolate vanilla frosting anyway?
Eda,
Heard that u were super 'busy' with ur special lady... have fun yah! :)
Hey Mel, the secret lies with Isa! I got a lot of my inspiration from her small cutesy book!
Halimah! Amazing! :D Are there any eggs in the cupcakes then?
is it buttercream? :)
Hi Eunice, no egg or diary (butter, milk etc) Instead I rely on leaving agents and oil to substitute the butter.
Also, the 'butter cream' is not made from butter! :D
Délicieux ! Cupcakes are not very common in France and have become trendy for just a few months. I bought Isa's book to know how they taste, but have never been able to follow one single recipe (always change the ingredients). I really enjoyed having guenine ones, thanks.
