  • Ingredients

  • For the cupcakes:

    • 225g Glutafin Gluten Free Select Multipurpose White Mix
    • 1 tsp baking powder
    • 225g softened butter
    • 225g caster sugar
    • 4 medium eggs

    For the buttercream:

    • 450g icing sugar
    • 225g softened butter
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • A few drops of Pink Food Colour Gel
    • Pink and Red Hearts

  • Method

  • Cupcakes:

    1. Preheat the oven to 160C Fan/180C. Line a 12 hole muffin tin with paper cupcake cases.
    2. Combine all of the ingredients for the cupcakes in a large mixing bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.
    3. Spoon the batter into the cupcake cakes and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until well risen and firm to the touch. Leave to cool in the tin for at least 1 hour before icing.

    Buttercream:

    1. Firstly, it’s important to make sure the butter is at room temperature. Beat the butter either in a food processor, stand mixer or by hand until it is pale and creamy.
    2. Gradually add in the icing sugar in stages, until it’s all beaten into the butter mixture.
    3. Add the vanilla extract and a few drops of pink food colour gel until your desired level of pink!

    To finish:
    1. Once the cupcakes are cool, spoon your buttercream into a piping bag and pipe a swirl on top. Finish with a scattering of pink hearts and stars.
