Cupcake Recipes
I built my business on cupcakes. For ten years, I ran a bakery where our main product was cupcakes, with 30 different flavors on the shelf every single day. I have personally baked hundreds of thousands of them, so I know a thing or two about how to bake the perfect cupcake!
On this page, you'll find all my best recipes, from classic cupcakes to indulgent gourmet cupcakes, as well as some frosting and filling ideas so you can mix and match to make your own creations.
