    SY or anyone else who might know

    What do bakeries do to cupcakes that make them so moist and dense? I've tried every store bought mix and changed cook times to lower and longer, higher and faster etc but they still don't have the same texture as bakery cupcakes. What do they do or use?

    I've heard Mayo actually. 1/4 a cup to any cake baking or cupcake mix. I always shave off a couple of minutes so things aren't over cooked or dried out. Mayo makes sense though because it has eggs and oil.

    I have used pudding in vanilla cupcakes before...that is YUM! And Apple sauce is another choice.

    HW & Chip, thank you! somebody here at work just told me sugar water brushed on right after you remove them from the oven? I'll try the applesauce, can't do vanilla pud.
