Description

These cupcakes are light, airy, and delicately flavored. The addition of extra fine corn flour gives the cake a slightly more robust structure and a hint of earthy sweetness without the graininess often associated with cornmeal. They are versatile enough to be served plain with tea or topped with a rich buttercream frosting for a special occasion.
