Cupcakes
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. One important detail is unmoulding the cupcakes: take them out of the tin while they are still warm. If you missed the right moment and they won’t come out, put the tin in a warm oven for 3 minutes. After warming through, they will slip out easily. The bake is ready. Serve at the table.
