These simple and very easy to make cupcakes are made with a vanilla flavoured sponge and decorated with green buttercream and mini golf balls made with marzipan. Fun and unique bake, ideal for Father's Day or for any golf enthusiasts out there!
HOW TO MAKE THIS GOLD CUPCAKES RECIPE
Preheat the oven to 180 C (160 C fan) and line a 12-hole muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Cream the butter and the sugar together for 2-3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
Whisk eggs with vanilla in a jug or a mug, and gradually add into the sugar and butter, mixing well after each addition.
Sift in the flour and fold into the rest of the ingredients using a spoon or spatula. Add 1 tbsp of milk to thin the batter out a bit. Divide the batter between cupcake cases, filling each no more than half full.
Bake for 12 - 15 minutes, or until the cakes are golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
Make the buttercream by beating all the ingredients together. Add enough food colouring to achieve the desired shade of green and transfer it to the piping bag (use the grass nozzle if you have one). Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcakes.
Decorate the cupcakes with small ˜golf balls" made of marzipan and use some decorative toothpicks if you'd like.

Unrefined Demerara is one of our most versatile sugars. Use it to add crunch to your baking, sweeten drinks or simply sprinkle on your breakfast.
And there’s nothing ‘unrefined’ about it when you see it caramelized on top of a crème brûlée!

Key initiatives funded by our Fairtrade Premium have included a programme focused on female empowerment by The Progressive Sugarcane Producers Association. This pilot project engaged women across four communities in Belize, providing them with essential skills in financial literacy, economic opportunities, and hands-on training.
These women, including Elsa Perez, learned to manage their sugarcane revenues, explore small business entrepreneurship, and diversify their income sources.
