It was my mum's birthday so I decided to bake something special. I was scrolling through my cousie's blog and came across two recipes on carrot cupcakes. She recommended that this will be moist but not too sweet as it blends with the cream cheese frosting ( frosting is meant to be sweet ). I do have a sweet tooth. Hence, I decided to give it a try! Though it was my first try preparing the frosting but it wasn't that hard as I expected. The carrot cupcakes with cream cheese frosting are reasonably good, I cupcake base a lot. It's nutty and aromatic! This will definitely be on my very own baking list :)
