"Fabulous recipe, works perfectly everytime! I used sherry instead of brandy and sometimes add prunes and dates to the fruit mix. Brilliant!"

"Has anyone tried making these in muffin tins rather than ramekins? I don't have any and really don't want to have to buy some. I thought smaller amounts in a muffin tin might work. "

Lemon & poppyseed cupcakes

"This is the best cupcake recipe ever - I love it! I've made orange and poppyseed, raspberry (leave out lemon and poppyseed add frozen raspberries), chocolate (substitute some flour for cocoa powder). No matter what you do they turn out perfectly! Brilliant!"

"Glad they worked out for you. Sometimes you just need all the artificial stuff - just doesn't look right when you go natural!"

"The cupcakes are the base, you put the frosting on the top, just like icing any other cupcake. You can't see them in the photo because it was taken from above but I can assure you all that blue frosting is sitting on top of a cupcake. Sugar and Spice, I'm realy sorry but I have no idea what vegetable shortening is available in the UK. The one I use is white and is soft at room temp. If it is a problem finding one I'd just make up a buttercream - life's too short to stress! For a buttercream recipe the standard is usually 125g butter, beat until as light as possible, gradually add 250g icing sugar mixture then beat in 2T milk. I would double this because you do use quite a lot. "
