i cannot tell a lie – i’m a big fan of aunt jemima. she practically raised me. real maple, as i’ve noted before, tastes way too much like maple and not enough like syrup.

Whether it has frosting or not is usually the dealbreaker, but you can also throw them against the wall to check their density. A muffin is heavier, so it goes “thud;” a cupcake is lighter, and it goes “paf.”

in re cupcakes v. muffins: I tend to think of cc’s as the cakier, sweeter, always iced cousin of the muffin. Muffins tend to be breadier, not quite as sweet, not always iced, and sometimes contain bits and pieces of fruit etc.
