Glad you’re back– more cupcakes, mmmm.
Where do you find your cupcake wrappers, specifically the ones that look Dixie cups, like the ones in this post? Thanks.

You’ve done it again, inspired me
I am always looking for recipes with Persimmons, they are so neglected in the food World.
Have really missed you, glad to see you back
Happy Holidays

Hi, I’m new to your blog (via 52 cupcakes) and I love it! Here in Holland cupcakes are regarded as kids treats, but the way they are decorated like you do……
I have a little question though, I would like to do cupcakes for christmas but we will have a quest who is absolutely allergic to eggs. Is there a way in the world of cupcakes to make these without eggs? (I know it is almost unspeakable but maybe it can be done?) I did a google search but so far didn’t come up with something edible, could you please help? Thanks a lot!

Hi! I live in the Philippines and Persimmon is not widely available here. IS there any other fruit you can suggest I use for this recipe? I really want to give it a try. THanks!

By the way, love your cupcakes. Made 4 already and they all came out good =)

Hey, nosheteria - I am trying to hunt down where I got the cups… They are called portion cups. You can froogle it and see. 3.5 ounce are closest to regular cupcake size (1 ounce for mini’s). They are hard to find in small quantities and I can’t locate the place I got the 3.5 ounces! I will keep looking and let you know.

baking soda, I haven’t worked on any such recipes personally, but I have seen this site before which has some handy substitution information specifically for people with allergies, www.foodallergykitchen.com.

socampo77, I am so happy to hear that my recipes have worked out for you! I get a little stressed about that sometimes :) Anyway, I actually prefer this recipe with berries, basically any fruit with some tartness. I think it balances out the sweetness better. Also, the classic combination with pavlova is kiwi and strawberry. Good luck!

Thanks! I wish I wasn’t so busy these days. I realized this weekend though, how much I had missed making cupcakes… I am going to try to find the time to make some this weekend.

I wish I had discovered your site ages ago! I got a box of really yummy persimmons for Christmas and I was wondering what to do with them besides eating them as is … sigh. Great recipes!
