There are about 1,500-2,500 calories in a full chocolate cake, depending on the size of the cake and the recipe used.
Cupcakes are made with a plain or fancy cake recipe. What makes them cupcakes is the pan that they're baked in, called a cupcake (or muffin) pan. The only difference between cake and cupcakes is the size and shape of the cake and the difference in baking time (the smaller units bake faster than a full size cake). See the links below for some basic recipes.
it usually takes 5-7 minutes less, so if you had a box cake and it only had directions for a full size cupcake, this is what you would subtract.
If you have a recipe that tells you what size cake pan it will require, take a pan this size, fill it with water, and then carefully transfer the water into the number shaped cake pan. This will show you whether the recipe is the right size for the number shaped pan.
The name of "cupcake" is given as it is a small cake the size of a teacup. In previous centuries, before muffin tins were widely available, the cakes were often baked in individual pottery cups, ramekins, or molds. The British name "fairy cake" is a fanciful description of its size; an appropriate size for a party of diminutive fairies to share.
There are virtually endless possibilities for "styles" of cupcakes. Different "style" possibilities can include.... * Size of the cupcake * Shape of the cupcake * Color of cake * Flavor of the cake * Fillings * Icing design * Icing color * Icing flavor * Decorations atop the cupcake * Themed cupcake designs * Cupcake displays (designs, patterns, themes, layouts, ect.)
There won't be a difference in cooking temperature, just time. Bake at the temp reccommended in the recipe. If your mini pans are about cupcake size, they'll take 15 - 20 minutes or so, at 350 F.
It depends on the cake and on the size of the cake. It is usually about one cup. But, just follow the recipe, it will tell you.
No, there are no regulations on the size of cupcakes and some are quite large. In fact, Nordic Ware produces a specialty cake pan shaped like a cupcake that is the size of a big Bundt cake.
The proper temperature to bake any cake depends on the specific recipe and the size pan being used. Follow the directions on the cake mix package or listed in the recipe.
A cupcake is a sweet baked item which is small enough to be held in the palm of one's hand. The recipe is generally the same as that for a light cake, and the cupcake is covered with sugary icing the same way a cake might be. It is the same size as a muffin, but much sweeter. Cupcakes are cooked in the same kind of tins as muffins are, with a dozen or sixteen cups to hold the batter. Cupcakes were probably originally baked in individual cups, hence the name.
