Brooklyn vs Boston cream pie cupcakes

At long last, I finally had all of the ingredients I needed to make some of the more 'fancy' cakes from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World. I chose the Brooklyn vs Boston Cream Pie Cupcakes in particular partly out of excitement for my upcoming trip and partly because I love filled cupcakes, but I didn't realise quite how many stages there would be! I seem to have lost my piping bag, so filling them using a sandwich bag got incredibly messy and I gave up after having filled only 5. I also wasn't originally impressed with the taste of the filling as it tasted a little too much of soy for my liking, however I'm seriously regretting this now as once it's inside the cupcakes, it tastes absolutely gorgeous! These cupcakes require a fair of effort, but are totally worth it in the end.
