Cupcakes vs Muffins: What is the difference?

6:47 pm  ,  4 comments

Cupcakes
Definition: a small cake baked in a pan having cuplike molds and typically frosted.
Muffins
Definition: a quick bread baked in a pan having cuplike molds.

Do a search on Google and there will be tons of pages arguing Cupcakes vs Muffins with lots of different theories, but I would like to simply define the difference with the simple definitions above. Do you agree?

    Hmm. As dan lepard says muffin should atleast have a shot at being healthy and I tend to associate muffins with breakfast and seeds more
