EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If you have extra batter and not enough muffin cups, keep the batter in the refrigerator while the cupcakes are baking and repeat the process.

If you do not have vanilla bean paste, substitute 2 teaspoons vanilla.

I wouldn't worry too much about the vanilla -- the taste of vanilla only really appears in flans, etc; not baking. You really can use imitation vanilla in baking and not be arrested. Chefs Magazine did a taste test and okay imitation -- a big savings baking at Christmas, etc. I was a caterer for 26 years and never, ever used whipping cream. It just doesn't have enough stabilizers; go with heavy cream. Have to admit I didn't make these -- saw them, looked nice, but have been conned into making the flip flops cake. Hope this is helpful.

Super easy recipe followed on box. The kids loved helping me add the berries to the top! However, I couldn't get my whipped cream to stiffen like it shows in the picture. Also, if you do not already own bean paste, it is only sold at specialty stores (you can order it online). I was really bummed about that, definitely ordering some for my next recipe. Substituted real vanilla extract instead. Over all, the family enjoyed them.
