Ingredients of these eggless red velvet cupcakes

1. The castor sugar we have used in this recipe is from the brand Trust. Their sugar really has a very nice texture, ideal for baking. Using castor sugar ensures the best outcomes in your desserts.
2. We are generally not choosy about the cocoa powder. However, Hershey’s is the best cocoa powder out there. It costs the same as Cadbury’s. If you’re not looking to be too invested, you can always use cocoa powder from Weikfield.
3. For desserts that require vegetable oil over butter, please ensure you’re using flavorless oil. We use brands such as Fortune or Saffola. However, if you’re going for a completely invested procedure, please go ahead and use extra virgin olive oil. Using oils like mustard oil really spoils the taste- thus, please avoid.
4. Food coloring quality really differs. You can use either water or gel-based coloring. However, be aware of the quality of your colouring. The best brands for the same are Kitchen Aid, CCDs, and Sprig.

Nailing these eggless red velvet cupcakes

I would go ahead and call these eggless red velvet cupcakes absolutely perfect because, well, they are delicious, they do not require any complex ingredients, and they are done and frosted within a span of only 30 minutes!

To get your cupcakes perfect (more perfect, haha), I would also like to suggest some tips. I assure you, you will fall in love with baking cupcakes once you realize how easy they are!

• Use an ice cream scooper to get the perfect quantity of the batter in the cupcake liners.
• Do not push two cupcake trays into your oven. Put one batch of your cupcakes in the center of the oven for even and uniform baking.
• Never forget to pre-heat your oven.
• To test whether your cupcakes are done or not, you can always use a toothpick. However, when you think your cupcakes are evenly baked, you can push the center with your finger. If it bounces back, they’re completely baked. (Only try this with cupcakes that have cooled down a bit).
