 Rainbow Cupcake

You can never go wrong with a delicious cupcake topped with good frosting. Whether it’s a buttercream or swiss meringue frosting, the combined bite of the cake and frosting is mouth-watering.

The best thing about cupcakes is they bake faster then full-sized cakes. A standard cupcake recipe uses butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, scooped into cupcake liners. Too much of a dry ingredient like flour or cocoa (in the case of chocolate cupcake) can make the cupcake very dry. A perfect fluffy cupcake needs quality room temperature ingredients, a batter not overly mixed and oven heat that is not disturbed during the baking process.

All you need is a basic cupcake recipe and the addition of different ingredients can make your cupcake range from one flavour to another e.g: Adding lemon zest and blueberries to your basic recipe makes a lemon blueberry cupcake.
