Read the article - that's really not the case anymore. My wife is a baker, and she makes Vegan deserts all the time, I can tell you first hand that when done well, Vegan deserts are every bit as delicious as "normal" ones

We have several fully-vegan bakeries around me, and they're truly indistinguishable. It's a bit harder for the home cook, but not by much.

I would say it depends on what you are making. Some home vegan baked goods are a fair bit of extra effort to get just right. But honestly, things like croissants are always a pain, which is why I eat them when I got out, versus muffins which I make at home.

I would not go that far, but I have had some excellent ones. Something I would never had found even a few years ago.
