60 minutes

The base for cupcakes is a classic recipe that will give your desserts an airy texture and rich creamy flavor. Its roots go back to Europe, where cupcake baking became a symbol of cozy home tea parties. Butter adds tenderness to the batter, sugar adds sweetness, and eggs ensure a light structure. Wheat flour combined with baking powder creates the perfect base, while milk makes the batter even softer. These cupcakes can be topped with any cream or glaze, turning them into a true culinary masterpiece. They are perfect for family celebrations, friendly gatherings, or simply to enjoy a moment with a cup of fragrant tea.
