These cupcakes were a disappointment. The batter was too runny and the cupcakes didn't rise properly. I ended up throwing them away.

These cupcakes were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the batter next time.

These cupcakes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add a little more butter or oil to the batter next time.
