Creating a vegan pastry cream that mimics the traditional version is absolutely achievable with the right ingredients.
The two main challenges in vegan pastry-making are replacing milk and egg yolks. Milk is an easy swap - simply use your favourite plant-based alternative, like soya or rice milk. The tricky part is replacing egg yolks, which provide the cream's smooth texture and structure.
Fortunately, technical starches can step in to thicken creams while enhancing texture and stability, even when frozen. These starches also preserve fresh flavours, as they eliminate the need to heat certain ingredients like fruit. To understand egg yolk's role in pastry cream, Sosa have broken down the basics to help explain the best substitutes to achieve the perfect plant-based pastry cream.
Substitutes for making vegan pastry creams
Natur emul
- This can be a replacement for egg yolks’ emulsifying properties, which they owe to their lecithin. This is particularly important when emulsifying creams properly.
Gelcrem hot
- Gelcrem hot helps to thicken hot creams and have an important role to play in improving their texture and stability when they are frozen.
Gelcrem cold
- Gelcrem Cold is a game-changer for thickening cold creams! It keeps them smooth and stable, even when frozen. Plus, it’s brilliant for fruit creams because it locks in that fresh, vibrant flavour without needing to cook them.
