Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh oranges and cardamom pods will give your cupcakes the best flavor. If you can, use organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Zest your oranges finely: This will help to release the essential oils and give your cupcakes a more intense orange flavor.
- Don't overmix your batter: Overmixing can make your cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill your cupcake liners only 2/3 full: This will help to prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
- Bake your cupcakes at a moderate temperature: This will help to prevent them from browning too quickly and will give them a more even bake.
- Let your cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
