Nutmeg can be quite the herb and can become overpowering quit quickly, but I think it is a great idea!. I believe it will bring some nice warmth to the cupcakes!. But don't overdo it, or they will just be intolerable!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
you could use put in some molasses with some sugar; and that will give it an added taste if you have time then you can experiment and use wholemeal flour and the molasses tastes really nice!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
