-
These vanilla cupcakes, topped with candy-coloured vanilla frosting and sprinkles, are what the Hummingbird Bakery is best known for. When you make these at home, don’t overcook them – they should be light golden and spring back when touched. This way you will ensure an airy, moist sponge with a subtle vanilla taste.
