Mr Tom Cupcakes.

You might remember in my Nice Vegan Things round up (a few blogs down!) that I have a love for Mr Tom bars. They are seriously good- they're from Germany and you can find them in random places like some petrol stations and corner shops. They have funky packaging and taste delish. Peanuty chewy goodness. A few weeks ago I also invented peanut butter icing.
And so today I decided to combine the two inventions to make MR TOM CUPCAKES!!

I made a basic cupcakes recipe, using bananas (my new favourite egg replacement) and some oil, iced them with peanut butter icing, then topped it off with a chunk of Mr Tom. I bought a new piping bag set this week so had to try them out.

* PEANUT BUTTER ICING DOES NOT WORK IN A PIPING BAG*

The chunks of peanut clogged it up. Lovely. Though I actually prefer the 'rustic' icing anyway. Yum!

  2. Thankyou! That's a shame, maybe you can order them online? They're worth it, and usually quite cheap!

  3. Yummy looking cupcakes! I haven't tried pb icing but if I do I will remember your tip and try smooth pb instead of crunchy!
