As mentioned in my previous post, i am attempting to employ my gas stove more instead of my power draining oven.
This cupcake here, is a strawberry fanta flavoured steamed cupcake.
As with butter cakes, the surface of this cake is supposed to “break open”, indicating that the cake has fully risen.
And if you are wondering what the black stuff on it is, they were shredded chocolate.
I love how the strawberry fanta imparts the pretty pink color.
Not to mention a slightly strawberry flavor.
