The difference between a muffin and a cupcake

Many people confuse muffins with cupcakes. Even though these two mini cakes look similar, there are many differences. Visually, the cupcake is generally upright with the top aligned with the bottom. While the muffin often has an overflowing swollen top which gives a pretty mushroom shape. We are also more accustomed to making frosting on cupcakes unlike muffins which are very rarely covered with cream. The cupcake is the creative individual cake, we tend to decorate it with confetti and color it.

The muffin is sufficient in itself. In taste, the cupcake and the muffin are also different. The cupcake is almost entirely sweet while there are many savory versions of the muffin. The latter is considered a quick bread. Dry ingredients are prepared separately from liquid ingredients. The cupcake is lighter and more airy. They are based on classic cake batter.
