The Chocolate Chips are heavy so they just sink to the bottom the same way we can drown in water if we can't swim.
If you use mini-chocolate chips, wet them with water, milk or extract and then coat them with a light dusting of flour, they won't sink to the bottom of the cake mix.

∙ 15y agoSeveral possibilities.
* the oven temperature is too hot * over-beating the batter * over-filling the cups/liners (should be 2/3 full before baking) * underbaking
Solutions.
* Beat only until everything is mixed. A minute after adding an ingredient will usually do. * Let the batter sit in the pan for a few minutes before putting it in the oven. Excessive air bubbles will pop. * Hold the filled pans an inch or so above the counter and let them drop to pop air bubbles.

∙ 12y agoThey sink because the batter/mixture isn't hard or rough or solid enough for the chocolate chips mix in right. The cookie dough batter thingy is more solid than cupcake batter so it mixes in right. IF the cupcake dough is harder then it will work, but if isn't than it would be the same as dropping the chocolate chips into water and hoping they will float. :)

No. Cherries float in water of their own accord. The volume of water displaced by a cherry is enough that the buoyant force of the water can counteract the weight of the cherry.

How do you stop cherries falling to the bottom of your cherry madiera cake?
Toss cherries or other fruit in flour before adding them to the cake batter. This helps stabilise them, and prevents them from sinking to the bottom. Cut cherries in half, or even in quarters, before tossing them with flour. Cherries are heavy enough to sink in some batters, even with the flour coating - unless they are cut into smaller pieces. Choose a cake with a stiff batter, rather than one with a thin batter. A stiff batter offers more resistance to the cherries, and will not allow them to sink as readily. Rinse halved maraschino or glace cherries under cold running water before flouring them. Flour will adhere better after they are rinsed. Drain any extra water before tossing them in the flour. Place the cherries on top of the cake before it goes into the oven. The ones that sink will not make it all the way to the bottom, and the handful that stay at the top will lend an attractive appearance to the cake.
