For a modern wedding, these black wedding cupcakes are a stylish and classy addition. They go well with Sweet Creations Cakes' modern black wedding cake because they are deep black and have silver pearl accents. These cupcakes are rich and moist, and your guests will love them.
Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar. 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. 1 1/2 tsp baking powder. 1 1/2 tsp baking soda. 1 tsp salt. 2 large eggs. 1 cup buttermilk. 1/2 cup vegetable oil. 2 tsp vanilla extract. 1 cup hot water. Black food coloring gel. Black cupcake liners. Black frosting prepared or homemade. Silver edible pearls for decoration.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line your cupcake pan with black cupcake liners. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Stir in the black food coloring gel until you achieve the desired color for your cupcakes. Gradually add the hot water while stirring the batter. The batter will be thin, but that's okay. Pour the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them with black frosting using a piping bag or a spatula. Decorate each cupcake with silver edible pearls to add an elegant touch to your black wedding cupcakes. Serve and enjoy your modern wedding cupcakes by Sweet Creations Cakes!
