I’ve made a lot of cakes or Cupcakes over the years like Easy Toasted S’Mores Cupcakes. But this one is unique and always reminds me of weddings and like no other I’ve made.

Have you ever had one of those days when you just need cake because not every moment calls for a big, fancy layered one and instead you crave something sweet that is soft and kind of comforting, That was exactly me last weekend since the kids were fighting over who would get the last pancake, I was just two sips into cold coffee number three when it hit me almond cake cupcakes.
Oh wow it was light and nutty and had just the right kind of sweet so much so that my youngest called them “tiny almond clouds” and honestly I teared up a little.What I love most is that they’re low-key fancy in a way that makes it seem like you really tried even though you didn’t actually try that hard you know.

And the smell? Don’t even get me started because that warm almond scent filling the house is what I imagine heaven smells like and honestly it’s just magic.
Have you ever baked with almond extract before,If not, buckle up since it’s a total game-changer.
Let’s get into it but just don’t blame me if they vanish before they even cool down.
