Vegan Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes with Speculoos Cream Cheese Frosting

Friday, November 22, 2013


OMG these cupcakes are actually swoon-worthy!!

The cake is so fluffy and full of pumpkin flavoured goodness.

These cupcakes basically scream fall and they will make you scream because of how tasty they are.


No kidding, staring at these photos right now is making me crave them.


The icing on these bad boys is out of this world. It's so velvety it's almost like the texture of a boiled icing.


Coloured sugar is just so simple but so special at the same time. It's a quick fix to make any dessert look instantly festive.
