No more scouring KZbin for dozens of recipes. I head straight to this channel and know whatever I bake will be a recipe that would be handed down to future generations. Thank you for all you do!

Made these twice. First time I made sure to measure and weigh out everything by grams and the result was perfect. Second time, also great but since I measured in cups and spoons it didn't result in a perfect cupcake. Still delicious but slightly more dense and slightly less spongey. So overall I highly recommend weighing everything out before you begin. This recipe is amazing though.

[@tahina1473]

That usually happens due to the flour being clumped together slightly, if you stir the flour a little it’ll help give you a more accurate measurement when using cups:) but that’s another reason I prefer using grams!

[@bcchan9193]

I made today, they're really soft and fluffy. I used homemade buttermilk (milk + vinegar) instead of yogurt, cos I didn't have yogurt at home. Thx for your recipe.

[@birdsbirdsandmorebirds6251]

These were the best cupcakes I've ever made! And I bake at least once a week!

[@CakesbyMK]

Yay! That makes me so so happy to hear :D so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe :) If you manage to find a spare minute I'd be so so happy if you can kindly leave a review for this recipe on my blog :D thanks so much!

Made 24 cupcakes yesterday, some choc and some vanilla using your recipes (I’ve never baked properly before) and they all came out amazing!! Tysmm🥰❤️

[@wateasa]

Did you use Greek yogurt?

[@novelist99]

​@@wateasa I did, and the cupcakes were great!

[@tahina1473]

@@wateasa I couldn’t be asked to go out & buy some so I used buttermilk instead since it has similar consistency and sourness and it turned out great! Greek yogurt or plain should be fine though

[@AA-ud5eb]

Just made these , am not a good or regular baker , but these came real good . This is the fourth cake I have made following your recipe, and all four are perfect . Will only follow you now .

These were delicious, very light and airy! In my full-size convection oven, I cooked them at 350 F for 15 minutes and some got a little too brown. I will reduce the temp next time.

Help I make a lot of cupcakes but being as so many people including myself don't like buttercream at all I have been using fresh double cream. I would so pleased to be able to pipe a lovely top on them but my cream is too soft or to whipped I can't get it right. I added a bit of lemon curd to my cream for my lemon cupcakes but it went too grainy .Do you think it was because of the lemon in the Sicilian curd and do you think a soft cheese topping might be better.HELP.

[@LightShineDesserts]

I only have plain nonfat Greek Yogurt, could I still use that? Or cultured buttermilk or is homemade better?

[@aryhanoeman528]

What can you substitute yoghurt with??? I tried your red velvet cupcake and it was just amazing super delicious ❤
