October 29, 2018 by hannahhossack Leave a Comment

Vegan red velvet cupcakes – moist, fluffy, easy to make chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with tangy vegan cream cheese frosting. Perfect for Halloween (or just any day).

Red velvet cake is good all year round, but it’s deep, blood red colour is particularly well suited to Halloween, which is why I chose now to post my vegan red velvet cupcakes recipe.

These vegan red velvet cupcakes are really quick and easy to make; and their delicious, not quite chocolate, not quite vanilla flavour is very moreish; particularly when they are topped with tangy vegan cream cheese frosting!…

Monochrome cake – a stylish black and white stripy chocolate and vanilla cake which is perfect for a classy Halloween party.

I’ve had the idea for this cake in mind since last year and have been collecting black and white sweets for it for months so I figured i should probably get round to turning my ideas into reality. The reality did not disappoint, the cake turned out exactly as I had imagined and I’m sure you’ll agree that it is quite the looker!…

Mini bleeding heart Halloween cakes – mini red velvet layer cakes topped with a realistic bleeding heart cake & ganache ‘blood’.

I haven’t had as much fun in the kitchen in a long time as I had making these mini bleeding heart Halloween cakes. Yes I am still trying to clean the food colouring off my hands and worktops but it was a fun and almost therapeutic craft project. …

Three layers of moist chocolate cake, filled with blackberry jam, iced with blackberry swiss meringue buttercream & topped with blackberry ganache & chocolate bark

It does occur to me that seeing as my blog name is the Domestic Gothess there is a serious lack of gothic bakes…this cake is here to rectify that oversight. I went all out with the food colouring for this one so make sure that you have a couple of pots of each colour, one probably won’t be enough!…

I’ve been a bit late to the pumpkin party this year, although I cook with butternut squash a lot (it’s my favourite vegetable), I don’t often bake with it, but I decided to remedy that this week with a loaf of pumpkin bread (I say bread but I would call this a loaf cake…) and now I’m kicking myself for not getting in the game sooner because this cake is delicious…Seriously, seriously good!…

Mint. What goes with mint…? CHOCOLATE! So….mint choc chip chocolate zebra cake was born.

Minty chocolate heaven….
