Lemon curd is normally based on eggs and this is the first time we've seen a vegan version on sale. You won't find it in stores however as this is an artisan product on sale at UK festivals only. Made by Nottinghamshire producer My Cupcakes, it appears in one of their vegan cupcakes and is sold by the jar in three sizes. Great for afternoon tea, or on your breakfast toast.
The curd is fantastically lemony, but with enough sweetness that it isn't sour. Our only comment would be that it's a little less firm than we'd expect for lemon curd. It's definitely a lemon curd though rather than a marmalade and is delicious on toast as well as in their lemon curd cupcake.
If you're in the UK you can head on over to the producer's website at www.mycupcakes.org to connect with them and see if they will be at a festival near you this summer.
