Cupcake Wars: Victoria Sandwich vs Espresso

Salam Alaykum,

Here is a light hearted battle of my most recent homemade cupcakes, both were delicious but only one will come out on top, who will it be?

Victoria Sandwich Cupcakes - straight from oven

Victoria Sandwich Cupcakes 

Victoria Sandwich Cupcakes -  with a dusting of icing sugar but who can spot the odd one out? 

VS.

Espresso Cupcakes straight from oven

filled with whipped cream, but wait it gets better

Chocolate, melted and drizzled over oh and a dusting of icing sugar that was not at all necessary

and the winner is:

Espresso!

I just had to make these delights again but this time they were a stronger espresso flavour!

(excuse the lighting, i took this photo at night compared to the rest which were in the morning/early afternoon)

Recipes, coming soon in shaa Allah
