Fairy Cupcakes

So, this was the situation: My friends and I were studying Geology and Maths because we had to take the final exams to approve those university subjects.
After a long time reading and summing the books and class notes, we were really hungry and bored. So, we decided to cook French maddelines, and we ended cooking cute and delicious cupcakes.

Now, I'll share the results with you! If you want to cook cupcakes, at the end I'll give you a basic recipe.
