Because kind cakes taste sweeter

Hello, I'm Ranj, VeCakes Founder & Baker. Welcome to my vegan cupcake business.

Baking has always been part of my life. Ever since I was little I've always made cakes and desserts for family birthdays and gatherings. I get so much joy from baking and like many of us went into overdrive during lockdown. So with lots of encouragement from family and friends I finally took the plunge and set up VeCakes as a small boutique cupcake business which I run from home.

​

But why vegan cakes?

When I started following a plant based diet, I knew that learning how to veganise my favourite cakes was a top priority if I was to stand any chance of sticking to a vegan diet. Yes I miss cheese, but I need good cake.

​

Cakes are often at the heart of our most cherished moments and milestones in life. As I learned about the dairy industry and the ingredients we use to bake the most beautiful of cakes, it leaves a bitter aftertaste knowing how innocent animals pay a heavy price for the pleasure we get from the centrepieces of celebration we all enjoy.

 

That's why I set up VeCakes, to bake truly joyful cakes. And whilst in this journey no animals have suffered in the name of cake, rest assured extensive experimentation has taken place on family and friends. 

​

And so the story begins...

 

With VeCakes, I really do think it is possible to have your cake and eat it. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
