Too sweet and too girlish...

So I've made some cupcakes earlier but was told it was too sweet and too girlish. Haha. So I have made another batch and this time with my own recipe instead of the usual premix. Tasted so much better I love it! Thanks mummy dearie for the recipe! I love you lots!!! Muah! I was trying to go for a chic look on the cupcakes this time so it wouldn't look too girlish. I reduce the sugar in this recipe so I hope its not too sweet. Will hear from the tasters again.
