    wow, this is special.

    I ever think of adding pork floss to muffin but never think that bak kwa can combine with muffin. :)

    Hi Jessica,

    You either use an ice-cream scoop or judge by the height of the batter in the muffin cup.

    HI elaine,

    it's a sign of overstirring causing it to turn smooth then when you bake, it turned hard.

    Hi Jan,

    You must wait for the cupcakes to be completely cooled before you store away in a container.

    Just wondering where you get your muffin cups from. I live in Australia. Any idea where I can get them online?

    Hi Sally

    Cupcakes are small little cakes while muffins are more dense and bready.

    Dear Aunty,

    Thanks so much for sharing!
    A question about cupcake n muffin:
    Is it normal for it to shrink after baking? Do we need to remove from the cup after baking?

    Rdgs,
    Yen Li

  25. Aunty YochanaMarch 12, 2009 9:48 pm

    Hi Yen Li

    Shrinking of the cupcakes could be due to bad quality papercups or muffin cups. Or...it could be the wrong muffin cups too. Don't use the waxy type for cupcakes.
