Key ingredients for Funfetti Cupcakes:

Melted butter: In contrast to most cupcake recipes, the butter and sugar with cream room temperatures, my recipe uses melted butter for a texture that feels more like a box mix (with much better taste!). You still need room temperature butter (and cream cheese) for the icing.

All -purpose And Cake flour: Half of everyone creates a perfectly light, fluffy and delicate cupcake, which can withstand a generous amount of frosting. I strongly recommend that I adhere to this exact relationship. I prefer swans in the cake flour.

sour cream And Buttermilk: It took a lot of tests to show the perfect moist and fluffy texture with a balanced taste (not too sweet), and this combination was the key. It is worth the trip to the store, promise !!

White And Brown sugar: White granulated sugar is what is traditionally used, but a hint of brown sugar helps to give more moisture and a little more taste.

Vanilla And Almond extract: The almond is optional, but I can only recommend it for this typical funfetti taste.

Funfetti -Streusel: It wouldn’t be funfetti without Rainbow sprinkle! Be sure to use colorful crumbs and store it in a dry, cool and dark place to extend your life and brightness. Do not use non -savings (small, crispy sprinkles) because your color bleeds in the dough.

My favorite cupcake pans

Before and after baking cupcakesBefore and after baking cupcakes

This recipe was tested with my two favorite cupcake pans: the Wilton Perfect Pan and the USA Cupcake Pan. The individual cavities are somewhat larger in the USA, so you can get two cupcakes (15) than if you use the Wilton pan.

Avoid black-colored cupcake doses that overflow or even flood the floors and edges of your cupcakes.

My favorite cupcake liners

Not all cupcake lines are done the same! I like this Cupcake liner from Amazon Because you don’t stick and have a good price -performance ratio.

Can I double this recipe?

Yes. Just double all ingredients. You need three cupcake doses with 12 cavity or have to cool down, wash and dry between batches.

Cream cheese sugar effusion

Be sure to use a brick made of high quality cream cheese like Philadelphia to achieve the best results. If you find out Organic sugar powder Made with tapioka strength instead of corn starch for a smooth consistency.

If you want to prefer it, you can also use my butter cream sugar recipe instead of the cream cheese sugar effusion.

My favorite cupcake -sugar -tip is that Wilton 1m. It makes you look like a professional, even if you have no artistic skills!

How do I store funfetti cupcakes?

Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 day and put them in the fridge for up to 3 days and get to the room temperature before serving.

Can you freeze funfetti cupcakes?

Yes! For the best results for up to 1 month in an airtight container. If you are ready to enjoy, thaw in the fridge overnight and then bring it to room temperature in front of the icing and serve.

I do not recommend freezing the frosted cupcakes. Condensation forms on the icing and lets the sprinkles bleed.
