Great Vegan cupcake book

When you're Vegan or have some types of food allergies, it might seem that there aren't any good recipes out there for you. My sister-in-law gave me a special cupcake book for Christmas due to the fact that my son can't have milk in his diet.

As a lover of baking and cupcakes, I hated that he couldn't enjoy my creations. He need not be left out as I am now the proud owner of Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World.

Let me tell you, Vegan or not, these cupcakes are good. In fact, I made them for a friend's family recently and her husband, who "does not like" Vegan food, ate these cupcakes and said they were great.

Since they are Vegan, they are good for people who have allergies to milk, eggs or animal products. (Yes, that type of allergy does exist.) I switched out the soy milk in the recipe to rice milk so a friend's soy-allergic son could also enjoy.

The vanilla cupcakes with "butter cream" frosting are a great go-to staple, one I plan on adding to my recipe stash. Decorate them with sprinkles and they make a fun treat for all ages.

The "How it all Vegan" & "Garden of Vegan" cookbooks are also awesome. They have lots of yummy & easy creations.

One of the best cakes I have ever tasted was a vegan cake made with coconut milk - ummmmmmmmmmmmm. It is possible to have yummy vegan baked goods! Although I don't think I could ever stick with eating vegan more than a few days before I started craving cheese...

I'll definitely use these ideas for my daughter Danny's next birthday party.

Since her birthday is Dec 20th, I'd like use Christmas as the party theme.

Here are loads of Christmas kid party game ideas.
Danny loves these ideas so much especially when she play with the coloring pages, Christmas song and holiday craft activities.
