Sifting removes lumps in the flour and ensures that your cake won't be dry and lumpy, while sifting increases the air in the cake and makes it puffier.
2. Uneven mixing of the batter
Uneven mixing of the ingredients, especially those with different colors, will result in swirls of different colors on the surface of the cake. But don't overmix, overmixing will stir too much air into the batter and cause the cake to collapse.

If the mold is too small, you can fill a few more and bake cupcakes with the rest of the batter, and if the mold is too big, remember to reduce the baking time appropriately.
5, do not use greaseproof paper
If you want to bake a particularly fluffy cake, or choose to use a piece of greaseproof paper is better, so that it is more convenient to take the product
