A cupcake is, indeed, a small and perfect indulgence for those of us who love something sweet and pretty and unique, cute and yet delicious. They are the star attraction for special days, such as Birthdays, Showers, Weddings, and Holidays, as well as perfect everyday goodies. Anyone whether a dedicate hobbyist or the occasional home baker can make cupcakes. Whenever a special occasion calls for a show stopping cake, consider cupcakes instead. Don't be intimidated by the fanciful designs of the cupcakes. Not only are the little cakes more playful then a large one, they are easier to serve ( in many cases, you can dispense with forks and knives) and infinitely more adaptable. If you wish, we can make multiple varieties of cupcake flavours to please a range of tastes and preferences to have a flavourtastic fun. Nearly all cake dough lend themselves to baking in individual portions. Bake them in muffin, madeleine or ladyfinger molds. If the papers are set in muffin tins, the cakes retain their shape better.
