Bahan dan Pengganti
First, gather all your ingredients. All you need are 4 ingredients:

- Soft Vegan Butter – Most vegan butter brands, I recommend Imbangan Bumi Vegan Butter Spread. This spread is already soft and spreadable out of the fridge. It means you don’t have to bring the vegan butter to room temperature before starting this easy vegan vanilla frosting recipe. You can’t use coconut oil for this recipe.
- Gula serbuk – Also called icing sugar in some countries. You can’t make buttercream with crystal sugar. It must be powder sugar.
- Ekstrak vanila – or fresh vanilla seeds if preferred, but much more expensive.
- Unsweetened Soy Milk – or other non-dairy milk like almond milk or oat milk.

How To Use Vegan Vanilla Frosting
This is a vegan vanilla cake frosting that can be used to frost:
- One layer 8 to 9-inch vegan vanilla cake
- One batch of 12 vanilla cupcakes
This recipe uses only 1/2 cup of vegan butter to frost a two-layer cake or 24 cupcakes. Simply double up each ingredient in the recipe.

Penyelesaian masalah
There are a few reasons why your vegan vanilla cupcake frosting can fail.
Let me explain the reasons below, or jump to the next section for my troubleshooting tips.
1. Over-beating the ingredients – you beat the frosting too fast for too long.
2. Warm environment or ingredients – you must use vegan butter straight from the fridge.
3. Too much soy milk – adding too much soy milk or any dairy milk curdle frosting.
4. Old batch of powdered sugar – poorly stored powdered sugar forms lumps and crystals that you can feel in your buttercream.
5. Terlalu manis – you added too much powdered sugar to balance a runny frosting.
This happens if you add too much liquid.
Balance by adding an extra 1-2 teaspoons of cornstarch (to avoid raising the sweetness of the frosting) or powdered sugar if you don’t mind your frosting being too sweet.
Your frosting misses some liquid. Add more liquid, add drops like 1/4 teaspoon at a time to avoid the frosting turning runny too quickly.
Your powdered sugar contains lumps, or it’s an old batch stored in an open-air environment. If your icing sugar is not fine enough or presents a lump, sift the powdered sugar in the bowl to remove lumps/sugar blocks.
Stir in a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness, about 1/4 teaspoon salt.
This happens when your kitchen is too warm, or the butter is too warm.
Place the bowl in the fridge for 10 minutes and restart the beating steps. By bringing down the temperature, the fluffiness should come back.
Yes, you can color your vegan frosting using natural food coloring paste or gel. Don’t use liquid food coloring in the frosting recipe. It can curdle the frosting.

Hi, i am looking to make raspberry frosting for a birthday cake. Can i use raspberry’s in this recipe instead of vanilla?
Many thanks 🙂
I would add crushed freeze dried raspberries, for color and taste. But of course, you can also just swap the vanilla extract by raspberry extract.
Hi! Is it possible to replace the vegan butter for avocado oil shortnening? Thank you!
I have never heard of an avocado oil shortening, so it’s hard to tell how it will impact the recipe. You can use margarine, made from avocado oil brands like Nuttelex.
How can I get my frosting to stay stable at room temp for a few hours ? Need a great frosting for a wedding, cupcakes. They will be on display for a few hours .
If it’s not that hot where you leave, this frosting last very well for a few hours at room temperature.
haven’t made this but the icing sounds good & kind of like an icing my mom wouldake but alittle more of healthier.anxious to try with the coconut cake.
Let me know if you try! I am sure you will be fine and create the most delicious cake.
Great recipe! I made your Vegan Carrot Cake (amazing!!) but missed the link for the frosting, my bad. So I used your vegan vanilla frosting and added shredded coconut instead of vanilla, because I was out of that. Everyone loved it and the cake!! Thank you! We will be making this again!
Terima kasih banyak-banyak !
This is a great recipe!! I’ve made the chocolate version too. So simple and easy to whip up. I don’t have a mixer at home but it was easy enough to just use a whisk.
Any thoughts on almond milk vs. oat milk.
both works perfectly well in this recipe, you won’t see any difference
So tasty! I used Oatmilk butter and it melts pretty fast. I kept it refrigerated before serving, even in the freezer for half and hour and everyone couldn’t believe it was vegan!
That sounds wonderful! I wish we had oat milk butter where I live.
Can I substitute coconut extract in place of vanilla? I’m hoping to decorate with coconut flavour.

Amazing frosting recipe!
I only had salted vegan butter on hand so used that with an extra teaspoon of vanilla and the frosting was scrumptious! Thank you for this perfect recipe! I’ll never make another vanilla frosting other than this one,
