I am really terrible when it comes to baking. I've tried a few times to make cupcakes but most of the time they don't turn out well. This time, I bought the ready mix cupcake and followed the instructions carefully. To my surprise, it was really easy and save time too. At least, I don't have to measure the ingredients one by one. For this cupcake mix, all I need was to add in four grade A eggs, 120ml water and 120ml palm oil.
Instead of 120ml water, I substitute it with my kids milk (since my lil prince seldom drink milk nowadays) and as for the palm oil, I use the Colavita Olive Oil instead (that's the only oil I found in my kitchen ^__^).
The instructions was pretty easy. Mix all the ingredients and use the electrical mixer and beat in medium speed for 1 minute followed by another minute in high speed. Scoop the batter into the cupcakes mould and bake for 15 minutes. This time I was really careful not to put too much of the batter into my cupcake paper cup because I was afraid that it will over flow during the baking process. I guess I was too careful. Didn't really turn out that nice. Nonetheless, this time the cupcake it is edible!
The next thing that I should try is how to decorate my cupcakes! I only have some sprinkles in my fridge and use them as decoration for my cupcakes. Looks like my cupcakes has some purple and pink pimples on them :P.
you baked well and the cupcake looks cute :)

I like using premix nowadays too because it is so much convenient while tasting good too. Making a cake from raw ingredients is definitely not cheap today especially when we need to buy so many things. My hub always say, better buy from shop :)
ReplyDeleteLooks good..
ReplyDeleteFish,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your compliment. I think I need to attend baking classes to improve :P
Chin Nee,
Yes, it's easier using premix and save a lot of time. At least we don't have to measure the items one by one and wash more utensils!
Mery,
