Making cup cakes. LOH contest #207

in Ladies of Hive2 months ago (edited)

Hello hivers. I hope you're all good. Today Im helping my boss bake some cup cakes for her grand daughters birthday. She will bring it to school to serve as snacks. I remember last time when she also baked bread. It didn't turns out well and she said it's terrible. It's hard and not the one she have imagined. I didn't even get the chance to try it coz when I turn my head it's already in the trash bin😁. She also don't know what went wrong that it didn't turn out good. I just hide my smile that time coz I don't want to offend her. Making this cup cake now brings back memories😁.
Back to making this cup cakes. She have the recipe and she do all the batter and mixing. I just help her measure the flour, butter, and crack the eggs. I don't have the exact recipe but I can memorize the ingredients. Though I don't have the exact measurement. She uses self raising flour, butter, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, white sugar, pinch of salt and blueberries. I was watching her mixing it. I also help putting the cup cake liners into the cup cakes pan. After she finish mixing everything, she scoop it ready.

After scooping everything, I put the blueberries on top and she poke it using a stick to hide.

Can see her stick trying to hide the blueberries and the shadow of my phone taking photos😁.
Then I put it in the oven in a moderate temperature (165°C). Bake it for 20 minutes. When it is almost ready she turns up the temperature to 170 to brown it nicely.

We did two batches but they don't look the same. The 2nd batch looks fatter and the blueberries can't be seen. Unlike the 1st batch. Lucky everything turns out good this time. I've tried the blueberries when I was washing it and it's sour. If for me I would prefer a chocolate chips to put on top but she said that chocolates are not suitable for children below two years old. Her grand daughter just turns two and some children or babies there are just eighteen months. That's why she choose to put blueberries instead of chocolate chips.

She put it together in one rack to cool down. She also bought some decoration to put in it.
After she pack it all ready to bring to school for snacks. I'm sure the children would like it.
Sometimes baking with her is quite fun and it gave me new ideas. For I know in myself that cooking or baking is not my cup of tea, However helping her do it gives me a second thought that maybe I can also try if I want to. Just a matter of choice😁😌.

!LADY

Thank you♥️. Parang muffins din, Ewan bakit cup cake tawag nya dito😁

Yan yung medyo hard yung texture noh? Kc looking at the batter before baking, thick consistency nya... Unlike sa cup cakes na softer.

Uo sis, parang crispy Yung top nya. 😁

Can I have a bite with this cupcakes? Looks so tasty

Sure😁. Thank you. Hehehe

Uo sis, gusto nya Yan flex KO xa, Sabi KO Kasi send KO SA kapatid KO Yung gawa nya😁. Hehehe. Thank you sis♥️

You really should try, it's a beautiful skill. The cupcakes turned out really lovely, even the ones that the blueberries were seen.
Thanks for joining in sis

Thank you sis♥️. I find it difficult sometimes. Especially when it comes to measuring the ingredients.😁

Looks like its a success this time, and they look beautiful cooked. If I'll eat it I prefer if its more brown, or like maybe a littke burn, haha. Seriously, burn muffins or bread taste yummy too. Haha. Anyways its for kids this is surely good for them. I'm curious what's their review on it. Ehe

I also like it more brown, but my boss is very particular about it.😁.
The children didn't finish it. Maybe because the blueberries are not sweet 😁.

Aww thats sad, chocolate is really the best choice foe this no or maybe other fruits na matamis. Sana naman di nasayang.

Binigay namin Yung IBA SA guards SA labas. Naubos din. Hehehe

Hehe glad to know that, some adult will surely love that.

These muffins look good. Its a bit strange how the two batches look different. Taste must have been good, they didn't magically turn into the trash bin, hehe

I also don't know why they look different 😁. Luckily it was edible this time😌😌.

Can take all you want, the children didn't finish it😌😌.

Wow they are whole blueberries and the children are 2 and under, is that not a bit big to eat them.
You tricked me posting twice in three days. I do like blueberry muffins but when I make them, I actually cut the blueberries...

And this ...

I just hide my smile that time coz

I can imagine you doing this 🤣
