I can't see the flowers on these flower cupcakes. Is that the style of frosting? Or the name of the sprinkles? I’ve failed! I can’t see the flowers on these flower cupcakes.

My mom uses them at her shop - Yummy in Yellowknife. My only question is the eggs - I'm going to use large not XL, is that really going to matter? I saw that on the comments on Foodtv.ca that people thought they were too sweet as well. I'm looking for a white cupcake for my company, Mission City Baking Company, and the Martha one I just tried wasn't a hit. Have any suggestions? I'll let you know how they turn out! (Maybe even send you a pic of them all decked out - how do I do that?) I’m attempting these today – before I even saw this post!! My mom uses them at her shop – Yummy in Yellowknife.

What do you use to pipe the frosting? I love the concentric ring plop look. Also, what is the crumb like on these cupcakes? I'm looking for a vanilla cupcake recipe with a dense, pound cake-ish texture. You mention that these were a bit sweet. Do you think that the sugar could be reduced to, say, 2 1/3 (without adjustment to the other ingredients)? Lastly, have you tried hummingbird cake/cupcakes? They contain banana, pineapple and pecans and are typically topped with cream cheese frosting, so they may fit the bill for a banana cupcake hankering. Cupcakeblog.com and joyofbaking.com both have recipes for them. Thanks again for the great recipes and enlightening commentary! These cupcakes look too, too cute!

It is simply DELICIOUS! [By the way I used a hand mixer and I think they turned out just fine.] Made these for my daughter to take to school and treat her classmates & teachers for Valentine's Day. I added red food coloring to the frosting and topped them off with heart sprinkles. I will DEFINITELY be using this recipe again. Just marvelous! Thanks so much for this recipe!
