These elegant treats feature layers of crisp, buttery vegan puff pastry wrapped into delicate cones, filled to the brim with a luscious coconut cream and aquafaba-based filling.

Whether you're vegan or simply craving a refined, dairy-free treat, these Vegan Cream Horns promise to be a showstopper that everyone will savor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease cream horn molds or use aluminum foil to create your own molds.
Roll out the vegan puff pastry sheets and cut into 1-inch wide strips.
Wrap each strip around the greased cream horn molds, slightly overlapping as you go.
Brush the wrapped pastry with melted vegan butter and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before removing molds.
To prepare the filling, chill the can of coconut cream in the refrigerator overnight. Scoop out the solid cream, leaving the liquid behind.
Beat the coconut cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whip the aquafaba with sugar and a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped aquafaba into the coconut cream mixture until well combined.
When the pastry shells are completely cool, pipe the vegan cream filling into each horn using a pastry bag.
Dust the filled cream horns with extra powdered sugar if desired and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
