BM #69 Week 2 day 3 -
My little one says that any kid-centric party is incomplete without a cake/cupcake. She prefers a cupcake over a cake when it is not her birthday and no issue of 'cake cutting ceremony'.
I had some canned pineapple bits which I put to use in this cupcake which was fluffy and moist and a tad sweet to my taste. Since I didn't intend to frost these cupcakes, I guess the sweetness is fine.
My older one who is not so fond of pineapple also took her share. Surprisingly my husband loved this cake and gobbled up his share :).
