Those who know me are aware of the fact that I work in a bar, a beer bar.....a very, very, very popular beer bar which happens to be so busy that I am sure just working there has taken years off my life. In the midst of all that hard work, my coworkers and I will engage in some gentle ribbing from time to time. A favorite target of said ribbing is Ryan, a bear of a man with a gentle spirit and a 'wicked' (he's from the east coast) sense of humor. This cupcake is my special tribute to him, and how much he loves a good, frothy Belgian- style wit beer topped with a juicy orange slice for garnish.
Today I tried my hand at taking an unknown, non vegan recipe and turning it into my own, very much vegan recipe. The recipe is pretty much still in the works. I'm not going to post the recipe until I have perfected it, but I will share some
photos of how it progresses!
The batter was very thick, so I wasn't sure it wo
uld rise much.Unfortunately it rose a little too much and I ended up with some overly fluffy/ crumbly cakes.
Definitely wouldn't be able to stand up to the frosting I have in mind. Oh well, that's what experimenting is all about!
