Do we have to add raisins in the cupcake

This recipe is fantastic! I was nervous after reading several bad reviews in which people thought these cupcakes were dry and tasteless. Mine turned out most and delicious! My only addition was carrot puree to add extra carrot flavor! The icing is yummy too!! Thanks Martha!

This cake is very tasty!!!

this is truly a queen of afternoon tea , i changed raisins to pecan, you know not everyone raisins fan so i can give chance for everyone to try it .it was fantastic.

I made this recipe as described

I made this recipe (changed a few things like not adding raisins and putting carrot puree instead of shavings) and they were soooooooo good. I made them "mini" for my son and neighbor children. I think the puree helped the actual muffin not be so bland. The frosting is fantastic - I could eat a bowl full of that by itself:)

yesterday i made this cake and it was great!! My kids really loved it. thank u Martha.

I made a batch of about 18 regular sized cupcakes and they were great! The cake itself was a little on the bland side, but i think that was merely because the frosting took most of the attention when it came to flavor. So the pretty much the muffins were good, my whole family loved them!
