Week 1 - Cupcake 3 - Gingerbread Pots

I did some research about using terra cotta pots when baking and I found out that you have to clean it really thoroughly before using it because some of them contains lead. I didn't want to take any risks especially when it comes to food so I didn't buy any and just baked them in a regular cupcake pan.

This is the one I was worried about the most. I used my mom's ginger candies and sliced them in little pieces but I was worried that it's going to be too big for the cupcake and it will just sink down the bottom of the cupcake. I tried it this morning and it was gooood! the lemon frosting compliments the ginger alot and the candies melted in the middle of the cupcakes making it really moist!
