Chiffon cupcakes are a type of light and fluffy cake that is similar to a traditional sponge cake but it has more soft and delicate crumb. It is a small cake designed to serve one person.
What makes chiffon cupcakes unique is that they are made with oil instead of butter, which gives them their airy texture. The batter is also lightened with beaten egg whites, and the cupcakes are often baked in paper liners to help them maintain their shape.
Chiffon cupcakes are versatile and can be flavored with a variety of ingredients, such as chocolate, lemon, vanilla, coffee and more. They are often served with a simple dusting of powdered sugar or frosted with buttercream or whipped cream for a more indulgent treat.
