Smarties Cupcakes

These cheerful cupcakes are pure joy in edible form – perfect for children’s parties, bake sales, or whenever you need to add a splash of colour to your day. The beauty lies in their simplicity: a tender, vanilla-scented sponge studded with colourful chocolate-coated sweets that create delightful pockets of crunch and sweetness throughout each bite.

What makes these cupcakes particularly successful is the gentle mixing technique – just enough to combine the ingredients without overworking the batter, ensuring light, fluffy results every time. The Smarties hold their shape and colour beautifully during baking, creating an attractive speckled effect that’s as pleasing to look at as it is to eat. They’re wonderfully versatile too – try them with different coloured sweets or add a simple buttercream topping for extra indulgence.
