Maple Syrup Cupcakes



With the current milk scare going on, I decided against embarking on another chocolate recipe. What could I make that is less worrying and yet still appealing for my friend, E's kids?

After some consideration, I decided to try out a new recipe which I have always wanted to test....cupcakes using maple syrup.

Maple syrup has a distinctly natural sweetness, quite unlike any other ingredients. It possesses a fragrance that is unique and light in taste.

Verdict : Light and fluffy, with a mild sweetness that would go extremely well with a cup of tea. For those who enjoy a slight refreshing sweetness, this would be the cake to have for an afternoon break.
