This fun festive treat combines a rich and fudgey chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream, topped with gluten free pretzels, fruit pastilles and goggly eyes. If you do make these cupcakes I’d love to see, don’t forget to tag me in your photos over on social media!
Which butter do you use for the the buttercream?
I use the Stork ‘perfect for baking’ 250g gold packet butter which is naturally dairy free and available in most major UK supermarkets. If you can’t get hold of this butter, it’s always best to use a hard dairy free butter block instead of a soft spread for a dairy free buttercream as soft spreads can sometimes cause the mixture to curdle. Note: This is the only Stork butter that doesn’t contain milk so be careful to pick up the right packet.
How long will the cupcakes last?
These cupcakes will last in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Which pretzels do you use for the antlers?
For the antlers I use the Schar Gluten Free Pretzels.
I absolutely love seeing what you’ve created, so if you do make this recipe (or any other recipe from my website) don’t forget to tag me over on my social media pages @glutenfreealice and use the hashtag #glutenfreealice
