Raspberry Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake

 

Hokkaido is a very beautiful place in Japan. This place will always have a special place in our heart. We have our honeymoon in Hokkaido. Our first encounter with snow , it was said Hokkaido snow was the most beautiful as it was not polluted and fine like caster sugar. Imagine you have sugar rain on you. It just melt as you start touches it. How does it taste like ? Nothing! How do I know? Ya out of curiousity we taste it ! Well , you got to do silly thing here and there in life. At least we have lots of memory in our honeymoon.

So when I come by this recipe with the word chiffon , it is hard not to draw my attention . The pink is so beautiful and it just so suit for a gal afternoon tea and brighten one day . Instead of doing the -> Strawberry Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes. I change it to Raspberry Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes. The pink is more red on my version and of course this must go in a pink cupcake mold.


So below are the recipe I used and adapt from the original link ( as above)
I made 9 cupcake for my mold size

I make this for myself. Love the color and the soft texture of the chiffon cupcake. I share this with one of my best family in Australia as an appreciation of their care and love for us all time.

It was so so refreshing the cream and the cake is soft. Taste is super yum. My love one seeing this beautiful cake can not resist and have some too . Is hard not to share when he is your love one.

And yes the cream is basically overflow and we think we stuff in too much for the first few. However it all goes well to our tummy :) Again another healthy cake , the size is small and it contain fruit ^^.

Simple good dessert for a peaceful night. Try this , is simple and impressive. Honestly who will resist a beautiful cupcake .
