Expert Cupcakes Baking Tips

How do I get gluten-free cupcakes to dome?

Fill liners only 2/3 full, bake at 350°F, and avoid over-mixing the batter — GF batter rises more than wheat batter, and over-mixing kills the air pockets needed for a good rise.

What frosting goes best with each cupcake flavor?

Vanilla and lemon love buttercream, red velvet demands cream cheese frosting, and chocolate cupcakes get double-chocolate buttercream with melted chocolate and cocoa.
