These are such fun Halloween treats! I’m sure my toddler will help making these – and eating them too. The drizzle looks so perfect.

Hi Jane,
The link to the green food colouring isn’t working – could you please tell me which brand and colour you used?
Many thanks!
Love, love, LOVE all your recipes & books!

In reply to Mandy. Hiya! Yes - fan ovens should be at 160 as per the recipe, and please stick to the timings on the recipe to achieve the best bake! Hope this helps x

In reply to Sarah. Hiya! In general, for dairy baking, it is important to not use stork for buttercream. But if baking dairy free it is slightly different and can't be helped! Hope this helps x

In reply to Mandy. Sorry Jane, I made a typo and couldn’t edit. I baked for 20 mins initially and when I skewer tested they weren’t cooked so I gave them another 5 mins. I had the fan oven on 170 as it’s a bit temperamental. Do you still think I overbaked? Maybe I should have just given them an extra 2 mins

In reply to Mandy.

Hiya – they are over baked! Cupcakes should take absolutely maximum 25 minutes – might be your oven etc, but they are over baked if they are dry!! x

Hi, I made these yesterday and they were a bit dry. I checked after 29 mins and they weren’t quite cooked so I gave them another 5 mins until cooked. I’m not sure where I went wrong.

Please can I ask why not stork for the unsalted butter?

I substitute a lot of ingredients due to allergies, I’ve always found that asda cheap “cooking” block works OK or vitalite, so just wondering if there’s something I should be watching out for.

Emlea vege cream or oatly both substitute well
