These cupcakes were a disappointment. They were dry and the frosting was bland.

The frosting was a bit too thick for my taste, but the cupcakes themselves were delicious.

I had some trouble getting the cupcakes to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
