January 23, 2022 It’s her Sweet 16, so…… I
don’t know, but I better think
It is almost Taanishi’s birthday of something quick because
and she is turning 16 years old! time is running out! I have a
She’s making me bake the few ideas though! But this has
dessert! She told me this today, to be good!
2 days before the party! What
a CRAZY WOMAN! I haven’t ~Saanvi Gulati
decided what I should make for
her party yet. I want it to be
simple but big parties like this
don’t just settle for simple!

January 24, 2022 A lot of people! So, I guess I
have to do some math!
I have decided that I’m going to
make Lemon Cupcakes for her ~Saanvi Gulati
party! Cupcakes are simple but
lemon ones, now that’s something
you don’t see often! I was
searching up recipes and I found
it! I think it is in my
recipes!Though, it only serves 12
people! At Taanishi’s party there
will be 58 people. She is inviting

Bakes 60 cupcakes
There are 58 people coming to Taanishi’s Sweet - 2 ½ cups of unsalted butter at
16. But, my recipe only bake 12 cupcakes!, I can’t room temperature
have 12 people having a cupcake and the other 46 - 5 cups of granulated sugar
people not. So, I had to to make more than the - 10 large eggs at room temperature
recipe made. Well, thankfully, my 5th grade math - 7 ½ teaspoons of pure vanilla
teacher taught me this! I decided to make 60 extract
cupcakes because having 2 extra cupcakes isn’t bad! - 7 ½ cups all purpose flour
So how do I multiply the recipe? I just multiply - 10 teaspoons of baking powder
all of my ingredients by 5. For example, I need 2 - 2 ½ teaspoon salt
eggs, but, since I am making 60 cupcakes I will - 2 ½ cup milk
need 10 eggs. - Zest or lemon juice of 10 lemons
- Vanilla buttercream frosting

* NOTE* I actually made 24
cupcakes instead, because I
couldn’t make 12 and I also
wanted to make extra for my
family., so I just wanted to state
that, I multiplied by 2 for this
recipe!
