The cupcakes are incredibly simple to prepare and fun for the whole family to decorate. They make a delightfully creepy and tasty addition to any Halloween snack or dessert table. Plus, since they're vegan, everyone can enjoy them—no dietary restrictions left out of the fun!
Why Make Vegan Halloween Cupcakes?
These cupcakes prove that vegan baking doesn't mean sacrificing flavor or fun. The chocolate base is rich, moist, and absolutely delicious. The best part? They're egg-free and dairy-free, making them perfect for guests with allergies or dietary preferences. And let's be honest—turning them into Halloween monsters is half the fun!
Key Ingredients and Equipment You'll Need
Vegan Cupcakes – I've included a homemade chocolate cupcake recipe below. If you need to save time, you can use a store-bought vegan chocolate cake mix instead. Alternatively, whip up any favorite dairy-free cupcake recipe in the flavor of your choice—vanilla, pumpkin, or chai cupcakes work beautifully too.
Frosting – You can buy vegan buttercream frosting or make your own. Surprisingly, many commercial brands of frosting are accidentally plant-based, including options from Pillsbury and Betty Crocker. For homemade vegan frosting that pipes beautifully, use a vegan cream cheese frosting. For chocolate icing, try a chocolate cream cheese frosting.
Piping Bags and Tips – These are readily available and inexpensive at most grocery stores or craft stores. However, they're not required! You can cut a hole in a Ziploc bag and use it as a makeshift piping bag.
Creative Decorations – Googly eyes, icing writers, rainbow sprinkles, edible glitter, vegan candy corn, vegan chocolate chips, mini pretzels, and vegan marshmallows. Have fun choosing all the festive Halloween embellishments your heart desires!
