“I don’t like cupcakes.”

– No one, ever

With National Cupcake Week just around the corner, we’ve picked some vegan cupcakes across the UK for you to get your mitts on.

LOLA’s Cupcakes, London, Oxford and Bluewater

You might have spotted these mouth-watering cupcakes first at Old Spitalfields Market or while dashing through King’s Cross St Pancras underground station. In passionfruit, strawberry and chocolate choices, each cupcake uses the perfect combination of soya yogurt and vegan butter, to create soft and flavoursome sponges! These are then decorated with vegan buttercream and topped off a choice of fresh passionfruit, strawberry or vegan chocolate shavings.

Rubys of London

Ruby’s love for vegan baking began at an early age, when her childhood dairy and egg allergies led her to get creative in the kitchen. From the humble beginnings of a Greenwich Market stall, her cupcake business grew quickly, and she now delivers across Greater London. She specialises in a variety of special dietary requirements, including products free from gluten and refined sugar.
