The humble cupcake, a delight we associate with birthdays and bakery windows, has a rich historical lineage. The first mention of a dessert similar to a cupcake can be traced back to 1796 in Amelia Simmons’ "American Cookery." It referred to "a cake to be baked in small cups." However, the term "cupcake" was not coined until 1828 in Eliza Leslie's cookbook, "Receipts". These early cupcakes were often baked in individual pottery cups, ramekins, or molds, giving them their distinctive name. While the colorful sprinkles we love today were not a part of the original recipe, they were introduced in the early 20th century, adding a touch of whimsy and joy to this delightful dessert. Today, they are a staple in bakeries around the world and at home, symbolizing celebration and sweetness in every bite.
