These cupcakes are delicious! I was so glad we had some Limoncello just lying around. However, I may just use some store bought filling in the future… this filling was a bit tart for me. Otherwise, these cupcakes were incredible!

These cupcakes were delicious! I was so happy that when I wanted to make these, we just happened to have Limoncello just lying around… talk about good luck! And I also thought the lemon curd just a little bit tart…next time, I might just add a tad more sugar perhaps? But overall, this was definitely the best lemon cupcake recipe I’ve ever used!

Hi, tried these at the weekend and they came out very dense, although very tasty! I wondered if I had converted one of my ingredients from US to UK incorrectly??? I’ll try again and if I get a good conversion I will post the recipe as a UK recipe if that’s ok, Michelle?

Hi Bridgette, I have not experimented with this substitution. I imagine it would alter the texture of the cupcakes, but you could always give it a try. If you give it a go I’d love to know how it turns out!

Can you substitute oil for butter?

I love lemon and especially Limoncello (ever since my first trip to Sorrento!) so I was delighted to find your recipe. I am going to try making a cake pop version of these cupcakes and will let you know how it goes!

Hi Meryam, I would cut the amount in half, as lemon extract has a much stronger/concentrated flavor than the limoncello, which is more mellow.

Hey Michelle!
If I were to use lemon extract in the batter and frosting in place of Limoncello, would I have to make any other changes in the recipe if I want to achieve a flavor as close to the original recipe as possible?
Thanks!

Hi Rachel, Limoncello is a liquor, so wherever you buy liquor – here in PA that would be state stores, but I know some states do sell it in the grocery store.

Where can I find limoncello? Would typical grocery stores have it?

I have tried several of your recipes (all wonderful) and can’t wait to try this one. I have never tried limoncello but I am going to just to try this recipe. I don’t even drink liquor but this sounds wonderful. I had to look up limoncello to see what it was.

I made these cupcake for our
youngest daughter who is crazy about lemons, she loved this recipe…….the rest of the family thought the lemon curd was waaaay to tart. At least one member of our family is happy, thanks for sharing the recipe

Hi Alexandra, That texture could have been caused due to overmixing of the batter.

Hello! I just loved the way these cupcakes looked and I’m a nut for anything citrus-y so I had to try them out. I did have a little trouble making them however. The cupcakes looked great when I took them out of the oven but they shrank a lot and became very dense and rubbery after they cooled. Any ideas why?

Hi Kathleen, That’s a good question, I have never done that substitution so I can’t say for sure how it would work with these cupcakes, but it might work. Let me know what you end up doing!
