For his last birthday I made a honey based meringue frosting which was okay (tasted very honey). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1326996 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 21:40:22 +0000 jedeve 1326996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So late to this but I've seen coconut whipped cream on Pinterest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1326989 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 21:37:32 +0000 Andrea 1326989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: @brownie: Thought I should report back. I made cupcakes using the wacky cake recipe and they were absolutely delicious! So thanks! I didn't put any icing on top, though. Have you put any icing on your wacky cakes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1180911 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 07:32:35 +0000 brownie 1180911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I just double the vanilla and don't put in the chocolate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1180828 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 06:22:51 +0000 looch 1180828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That wacky cake is the same recipe I use, it is also called depression cake, because there are no expensive ingredients in it.<br /> I am curious about making it vanilla, is there anything special you need to know? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1180815 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 05:53:29 +0000 Andrea 1180815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@brownie: oooh that sounds pretty tasty.

I have also made it with a quarter as much sugar and applesauce. I make it vanilla but most recipes are chocolate. I have made it gluten free and it works there too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1180336 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 19:20:22 +0000 regberadaisy 1180336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: unfortunately I haven't tried any egg and dairy free recipes so I can't vouch for any recipes. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179816 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:35:56 +0000 immabeetoo 1179816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: gotcha; fruit purees are super sweet to the taste so I'm no help then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179727 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 15:03:08 +0000 Andrea 1179727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: probably no nuts either since big sis is allergic. Haven't tried coconut yet!</p> <p>@looch: yes, I will have a look! She probably won't eat it anyway, but I want a little cupcake for photos! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179706 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:57:23 +0000 Mrsbells 1179706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think no topping is best in this case </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179698 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:55:56 +0000 looch 1179698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: look for a vegan cupcake recipe, I made one for a friend and they were so good (if you're okay with some cocoa powder and maple syrup). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179665 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:48:49 +0000 regberadaisy 1179665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: :( yes, on the milk but you can use almond or coconut milk? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179660 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:47:01 +0000 Andrea 1179660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: does it have dairy?

But it needed to stay refrigerated!!! It melted while on display. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179590 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:34:52 +0000 regberadaisy 1179590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: do you need a Eggless recipe? I found a really easy and moist Eggless vanilla cupcake I made when my niece and nephews were here. My nephew has a severe egg allergy. I'm altering it into pumpkin cupcakes. I can let you know how it turns out Wednesday evening if you want egg free pumpkin cupcakes. ;)</p> <p>@prettylizy: @Mamaof2: cute!!! Do you think the topper would cover the dusting though? Let me taste my powdered sugar tonight and see how sweet it is. If not too sweet I'll just do that and save myself the trouble if making toppers. And it'll be easier to pack up too! Haha</p> <p>@scg00387: not particularly. I just don't want to give kids things that are too sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179557 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:26:13 +0000 immabeetoo 1179557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: what about coconut? I bet you could make some type of coconut oil glaze. If you purée blueberries or strawberries or prunes it makes sort of a jelly, would any of those be good with pumpkin? Are you just against refined sugar? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179506 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:13:37 +0000 prettylizy 1179506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dust them with a touch of powdered sugar in the shape of ghosts? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179503 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:13:00 +0000 Mamaof2 1179503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not exactly sugar free but how about just a dusting of powdered sugar? Just enough to make it look nice - Then put the Halloween topper on that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179502 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:12:41 +0000 googly-eyes 1179502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just following because I'm curious to see if anyone has an answer. Sorry I don't have an answer though! </p> <p>I think you're ok to leave them plain though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179500 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:12:30 +0000 Andrea 1179500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: plain sounds good! What else is in your cupcakes? I need to make something for K's 1st bday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179497 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:10:40 +0000 looch 1179497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't frost them, i'd leave them plain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-sugary-egg-and-nut-free-cupcake-topping#post-1179496 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 14:10:13 +0000 regberadaisy 1179496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoyfulKiwi: has to not need to be refrigerated.

Do you think I'm OK to just add canned pumpkins to it? </p> <p>For now I'm just planning on throwing a festive Halloween topper on top. But does anyone have a non sugary, egg and nut free, does not need to be refrigerated topping for cupcakes? LOL I know it's a tall order! </p>
