I always admire cupcakes be it steamed or baked which rises, crack or smile beautifully. As I was afraid that mine may not 'smile' or they may be hard and tough, I never dare to try. Recently after my satisfactory attempt in making 'Nyonya Huat Kuih', I started looking back at the list of cupcakes which I have bookmarked to try.
One of the many is this steamed orange cupcake recipe from Anncoo Journal. Since I had the home-made Candied Orange Peel, I made these and I'm very happy, these cupcakes 'smiled' so beautifully. It's so easy to make them, too. It's a keeper.
According to Ann, these cupcakes can be reheated the next day before serving.
