I have always been very sceptical of vegan baking due to some very bad tasting experiences but all your cupcakes look divine! I will be trying some of them out at the weekend for sure!

I made these cupcakes tonight. While the cupcake itself turned out beautifully, I can’t say the same about my meringue buttercream. Does it usually take some time to get the hang of this? I followed all of the directions that you laid out, and everything looked as it was progressing just fine until I stopped my KitchenAid & prepared to put the frosting onto the cupcakes. At that point, it became runny and appeared to almost be individually separating. Do you have any idea why it would be doing this? I want to keep working on this frosting, as it sounds divine; and even tonight, when it failed, it still tasted phenomenal.
Thank you for this lovely recipe. I adore the cupcakes; I’ll just have to do a bit of tweaking with the frosting. :)

I just made these and they were awesome! Just like a chai latte. For some reason, though, my frosting came out a yellow/cream color instead of your bright white. Do you have any idea why this would be? Thanks!

Hello! I do not drink black tea, is there any herbal tea you could use to substitute the black tea for?

Made these as mini-cupcakes over the weekend and they were absolutely fabulous! Great recipe. Perfect for the fall.
