I was dubious about adding all ingredients in one go however the cupcakes turned out very well :) They are very moist and the orange glaze goes very week with the raspberry flavour :)

I will be making a batch to take into the office :)

every wednesday night i make cakes or a cake and bring it into school on thursday.
i doubled the ingrediants for this and used 6 large eggs instead of 8 and put a tsp of extra milk in. they are perfect. definetly making again! i also found the mix didn't have a orangey enough flavor so i put a little bit of orange juice in and they taste wonderfull

My first attempt at making cupcakes! Ingredients were easy to find and recipe easy to follow (even for someone as inexperienced as myself!). Was not overly impressed with the finished product however. I would have prefered the cupcakes to be more moist and soft, and to have a bit more flavour. My flatmate however loved them and even decorated a few with buttercream (which made them a lot tastier!). I probably will not use this recipe again but if I do I'd add white choccolate chips to the cupcake and buttercream on top just to enhance the flavours and to make the cupcakes less dry.

What a brilliant, quick and easy recipe. Will be trying this with different combinations - am thinking an apricot variation maybe.

I thought these where a little bland, must have done something wrong. Considering everyones comments.

Best cupcake recipe I have tried!
Would recommend this to anyone. Is very versitile also.
I did Lemon curd cupcakes, same recipe except I put some grated lemon rind in the cup cakes, cut a little hole in the top when they were baked and cooled down, and popped some lemon curd in them. They were awesome.

I did the original recipe also, and that was brilliant too.

Excellent recipe easy to follow and great end result. I added some dark chocolate chunks and made and orange butter cream and raspberry icing which worked really well. My friends keep asking for more!

Beautifully tasty and fresh. However the raspberries sunk to the bottom and they ended up quite soggy :( Still delicious though!

I'm not a great baker, so was thrilled with how delicious these cakes were. I'd certainly make them again, but may try with just the orange juice on top, rather than the sugar mix, so that I get the moist cake without so much sweetness. Will see if it works.

Sorry, forgot to rate them!

These are absolutely delicious! I changed the recipe a bit though:
For less fat I substituted 100 grams of butter with 100 grams of natural yoghurt.
Instead of ground almonds I used 25 grams of ground hazelnuts and 25 grams of poppy seed.
I cut down on the sugar and only used 150 grams - they came out very sweet still and I think that next time I'll only use 100 grams.
I added more raspberries and some vanilla extract to the dough.
Since I had no oranges at home, I made a lemon drizzle.
They were really moist and tasty, really lovely!

Surprising this recipe uses 4 eggs and overwhelming taste is egg, not raspberry or orange. Also unable to get crunchy sugar topping despite pouring on warm and cool cakes. Next time I'll try 2 eggs and will add orange juice to cake mix. Texture is good though, and worth tweaking the ingredients then trying again..

Hi, do we need to heat the orange juice and sugar to make the sugar crust. Or simply just mix them??

I got 18 out of this as well but they really were delicious- I used reduced fat butter and only half the drizzle to keep the calories down but they were so lovely and moist!

So good! Made this to use up some fresh raspberries I had in the fridge. I didn't have any oranges in the house so left out the zest and the topping, but it still made devine cakes, really light and moist and still good a couple of days later. The mixture did overflow some of the cases, but hey a small price to pay for such yum cakes.

Forgot to rate

Just made these with blackberries which we picked from the park. Used coconut instead of almonds. Great served with a dollop of clotted cream. Yum. Also. This mix made 30 cakes. Neighbours will be pleased.

OMG! First time attempting this recipe, which was an absolute success! Made cakes for a Royal Wedding party, mix blended fresh raspberries with a butter cream frosting to pipe on top and finished with fresh raspberry decoration.

Everybody loved them - highly recommend this one!

oh wow.. left out the almonds and topping, thoroughly enjoyed by all :)

easy to do taste grate but have not done the blue iceing yet
