    Eggless Orange chocolate cupcakes recipe - It is very spongy, moist and soft textured cupcake with awesome combination of orange and chocolate flavors.

    This recipe is similar to my chocolate cupcakes recipe. Vinegar is used to make it spongy, light and soft. This is also Vegan orange chocolate cupcake recipe except the frosting.

    I have made orange flavored frosting and it makes cupcakes more orangey. I just love this orange and chocolate flavor combination.

    I am very obsessed with eggless baking. In the result of that you will find a huge collection of eggless recipes on the blog. I will be posting more eggless recipes here as I do bake a lot.

    If you are baker then you know that whenever you bake something with orange, the whole house is filled with nice aroma. I have orange cake recipe on the blog and orange muffins recipe I have just shared.

    I have made only 6 cupcakes but recipe below is for 12 cupcakes.

      Hi! For the cocoa powder, should I use standard unsweetened cocoa powder, or Dutch processed? Thanks!

        I use regular unsweetened cocoa powder which you find in most grocery stores like Hershey's or Baker's.
