These look stunning! I love light and aromatic cupcakes which don't use the usual flavor combinations. Beautiful photos as always.
Ooh I love the look of these and I've just found elderflower cordial at Ikea! A quick question, how many tbs of honey? There is no number on the ingredient list! Thank you 🙂
These look amazing I'm thinking of making them but have a question… the list of ingredients calls for 1 tablespoon of baking powder, however the instructions say to mix flour and baking soda. Which is it?
Thank you!!
