Cupcakes

Is a small cake baked in a cup-shaped foil or paper


container and typically iced.
We can also say, it is a chemically leavened batter
based bakery product.
History
• Cupcakes first came about in America.  It is thought that
the first ever reference to ‘a cake to be baked in small
cups’, rather than as a layer cake, was in Amelia
Simmons’ ‘American Cookery’ in 1796. The first reference
to the word ‘cupcake’ is said to be from a 19th century
American author named Eliza Leslie in her cookbook
‘Receipts’.  
• It’s possible that ‘cupcakes’ were also a reference to
measuring techniques, with several cakes distinguishable
by name by their measurements to make them easy to
remember by volume, such as pound cakes.

Muffins
A muffin is a small baked good made from batter.
It is a sweet quick bread baked in a cup-shaped pan.
History
• muffin (n.) "a small, light, round, spongy cake made with
eggs," usually eaten buttered and toasted, 1703, moofin,
possibly from Low German muffen, plural of muffe "small
cake;" or somehow connected with Old French moflet "soft,
tender" (said of bread). The historical distinction of the muffin
from the crumpet is not entirely clear and the subject is
involved. In American English the word was extended to a sort
of cup-shaped bun or cake (often with blueberries, chocolate
chips, etc.)
• The ones consumed in the UK have been traditionally known
as english muffins. However, these differ from the popular
muffins that are consumed in the U.S., South America and
other regions of the world.
