What is the trick to stop the above from sticking in their paper cases!Mine always stick and are difficult to detach from the paper.Should I spray them first!

don't use them! I use silicone or non stuff muffin tins and spray with a bit of oil.

are you trying to pull the cup cakes from the paper before they've cooled down!I have the exact same problem with my cheese/savoury muffins so have given up on them (think the extra fat makes them stick!)

Try a different recipe, it could be too dry etc! What darlingmole said about removing them before they are cool. Another reason could be that they are not quire cooked! I remember something said by a judge on the Nestle Hottest Baker Show, its a sign of a perfectly cooked cup cake if it removes from the paper perfectly.

Thanx ladies.The muffins have all been cold, but half the mixture seems to be be left behind in the paper case.GRRRR! I'm sure that there must be a 'trick' to this!Maybe I will try spraying them as suggested above.

Hi i am a qualified chef and a childrens cooking tutor . yes do spray a light coat of spray oil in the cases and you will have great cakes. never over fill a cup cake case or they become technically muffins ( muffin tops) cup cakes are up to and not over flowing . the more you fill the harder to get paper off also.

I think some paper cases are better than others, try a different brand and see if they are any better.

Probably self rising flour. It sounds like a nice recipe.

I did use SR flour in the end, and it needed more milk. 50 mls didn't seem to be enough. I'm now going to try Merles one from Master Chef. Just printed off the recipe.Sounds similar actually.

You may need to raise the temp. of the oven. You should not have to spray the cases, with anything. A brown bottom, will be a firm bottom.
