Vanilla cupcake~ I've always love vanilla, and this time, it's filled with strawberry filling. I kept it simple and sweet. I baked these on Sports Day at my workplace. We were divided into groups which each was represented by colours and mine was red! So, I wanted to make some sweet and red treat for the members, so that's how I came up with the idea to make these cute little cupcakes. Besides, I saw some fresh little strawberries in a store near my house, so, I grabbed them. It's perfect~
As you can see these cupcakes are small, I baked them in aluminium cups which are a little bit bigger than the liners, so the cake didn't spread out on the sides but rise just above the cupcake liners but still in the aluminium cup. (Sorry for the childish drawing :p )
I have a foolproof recipe which I've tested over and over again and have made some changes to it along the way. It's a versatile recipe for a cake, where you can tweak here and there a little bit as long as you stay within the dry and wet ingredients ratio in the recipe. You can either use this recipe for a cake or cupcake. I've used the same recipe for marble cake, vanilla cake, chocolate cake, and coffee cake. And the most important thing is, it's easy with simple ingredients. The cake is light and the surface is smooth and golden brown after it is baked. If you get the recipe right, the cake is fluffy and light, literally, as if you are holding cotton candy. But, it's best to eat it warm as it will get denser the longer you leave it exposed to the humidity. Maybe after 2 days I'd say. They normally do not survive that long at my home : ) If you want to keep the cake fresh, keep it in a tight container. I'll share the recipe with you so that you'll be able to bake a perfect cake or cupcakes too~~ : )
