Warning!

It has been a while since i last posted as i have had my little girl Eloise and have not had a lot of time for baking!

My NCT group love cake so i thought i would make some raspberry muffins for one of our coffee mornings. I thought i'd attempt to shift some of the baby weight by using Splenda, an alternative to sugar, in the cupcakes. The box said to subsutuite by volume not weight. So 1 cup of Splenda equals the same as 1 cup of sugar.

BIG MISTAKE!

They looked amazing but tasted awful, chewy and tasteless... i re-made them as i thought i'd done something wrong but no, it really does make the cakes taste bad.

They were binned :-(
