About Fairy cakes

Fairy Cakes are small, light sponge cakes that originated in the United Kingdom and are closely related to the American cupcake. Made with simple ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and milk, they’re often topped with a thin layer of icing or colorful sprinkles. These charming treats are traditionally associated with tea time and special occasions. While Fairy Cakes are relatively low in fat compared to some desserts, they are high in sugar and refined carbohydrates, making them an energy-dense snack best enjoyed in moderation. Their petite size helps with portion control, offering a sweet indulgence without overwhelming calorie counts. Despite their simplicity, they can be customized with fruit, nuts, or alternative flours to enhance nutritional content. Fairy Cakes are a delightful taste of British baking, perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth while keeping serving sizes small.
