Frequently Asked Questions

Is Nutella Vegan?

No, Nutella is not a vegan product. This is because it is made using skim milk powder, which comes from cow’s milk. This means that Nutella contains an animal product, making it a non-vegan product. However, there are vegan alternatives available in stores that can easily be swapped in for Nutella in the above recipes.

Can I Swap Out Bicarbonate of Soda for Baking Soda Instead?

You can, but remember – baking soda is three times more powerful than bicarbonate of soda. If a recipe calls for one teaspoon of bicarbonate, you will need only ⅓ of baking soda.

How Long Will Nutella Scones Last After Baking?

Homemade scones will keep for 1-2 days after baking, as long as they are kept in an airtight container. You can make them longer by keeping them in a fridge instead of a room temperature cabinet. Any longer and they will start to go stale and dry.
