These were delicious! Made them for my daughter’s birthday and we really enjoyed them. The flavors are very balanced and fresh.
I would like to point out though that the instructions seem to miss a very important step, which might explain why some had difficulties: I beat my egg whites to peaks before folding them into the rest of the batter.
Also, I used 1kg of frozen strawberries and reduced them, after pureed, for many hours, until i had a bit less than 1/2 cup worth of it, and had a little less butter and consequently sugar in my frosting. The flavor was great but the color was a bit on the greyish side. We compensated by throwing some bright sprinkles in. Next time i might add some food coloring. Any other ideas to get that nice light pink color?

In reply to Fadoua.

I’m sorry to hear that, Fadoua! There are a number of things that can cause a cupcake to shrink. Underbaking is one. Leaving the cupcakes in the pan too long to cool is another. Overmixing the batter. Oven temperature being off. Opening the oven door too often. Unfortunately without being in the kitchen with you, it’s hard to know the culprit. But hopefully our baking articles will help you troubleshoot your specific situation. https://thecakeblog.com/category/baking-tips

I made these cupcakes last weekend and they were absolutely delicious! Such a yummy combo with the creamy Nutella and fresh strawberry.

Please help me!!

i´ve tried the cupcake recipe twice and the both times the cupcakes looks amazing when i take them out of the oven. But after 2-3 minutes they start to shrink!
What am i doing wrong?

These were awful. I will say that the cake batter was out of this world, but once baked, lost all its flavor. Then combined with that frosting, I took two bites and threw it away. The combo is just a total fail. Huge waste of time and ingredients.
