• On the hunt for the best vegan cupcakes in Vienna (Part 2)

One day I decided that I want to find the best vegan cupcakes in Vienna, considering that there are so may options too chose from and of course I want to share my experience with the community. The location of CupCakes Wien is a bit complicated to find, but luckily they have other stores in Vienna as well, for example at the Museumsquartier, which might be easier to find if you are a tourist. I chose to visit their mainstore at Albertgasse and was very delighted by their pretty little cafe. This is exactly how you picture a cupcake bakery and you can even have a look into the kitchen and observe the professionals work! The place itself was pretty busy when I visited at the afternoon and I could get a seat, but I saw later on that they offer an online reservation. They offer non-vegan cupcakes, too, but the vegan ones are cleary labeled and they always have a changing selection of vegan cupcakes, which can be looked up on their homepage. Some of the vegan cupcake are also gluten free and therefore more expensive, but a cupcake isn't cheapest here anyways (3,90.- per piece). I tried four of their vegan cupcakes: the coconut-straciatella cupcake, the peanutbutter cupcake, the wildberry cupcake and the chocolate cupcake. They are absolutly marvelous! The sponge was soft and juicy and the toppings just had the perfect consistency and sweetness! Also they are quite of a portion, I would say that they have the proportion of an average slice of cake. My favorites are the peanutbutter and the wildberry one, but all of them are so delicious that this is really a close call. Even though this may not be the cheapest place and they are not entirely vegan, tastewise this is the place with the best vegan cupcakes in Vienna!
