Shakera's Magnificent Cupcakes

Do you love sweets and cupcakes? I wanted to do food chemistry on cupcakes and how the ingredients could change the texture and taste of cupcakes. When you add different ingredients you get different results.

The science of cupcakes is the combination of several ingredients to create reactions to create cupcakes.I found that the different ingredients created different reactions. Some of the cupcakes were sweeter than others and some were oily than others. The end results were different gave different ingredients tastes and textures.


I made three batches of cup cakes  using different ingredients . I wanted to see which batch of cupcakes would taste the best. Also, to learn about the science behind cupcakes.
