FAQs about Cupcakes
-
Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full of batter. That will leave enough room for the cupcakes to rise as they bake without overflowing each cup. Always check what the recipe recommends as well. Some cupcake batters rise more than others so filling the liner ½ full is ideal.
-
There could be a few reasons your cupcakes aren’t coming out clean. If your batter is high in sugar, the heat can caramelize the sugar content and cause it to stick. If you’ve overfilled your cups, the batter can get between the paper and the pan. The number one way to prevent sticking is to avoid overfilling liners. Consumers can also use non-stick liners or lightly grease the liners with cooking spray or butter.
-
You can store decorated cupcakes at room temperature for around 5 days in an airtight container. If you want to save some for another time, they can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months.
