Galaxy Chocolate Cupcakes; fluffy chocolate cupcakes swirled with rich and creamy Galaxy chocolate buttercream icing and topped with a chunk of luxurious Galaxy milk chocolate.

 

We Brits are a divided bunch, whether it’s over something as big (and fecking disastrous) as Brexit, or something as minor as whether to top our scones with cream or jam first (jam first, obviously).

This division can even be found in our milk chocolate preferences. Usually with a definitive dichotomy of Cadbury v Galaxy. Where do you stand?

I’m firmly on the side of Cadbury, as is my dad, who would choose a Dairy Milk bar over any alternative. My mum and my boyfriend however are staunch Galaxy fans, choosing a brown wrapper over a purple one any day.

Having chosen my side years ago, I published this recipe for Cadbury Cupcakes way back when I started this little blog. I’ve been overwhelmed by its popularity, and thought it was about time I followed it up with a potential rival.

Introducing, the Galaxy Chocolate Cupcakes.

Light chocolate sponge, a swirl of creamy and distinctive Galaxy buttercream icing and of course, a decorative chunk of smooth Galaxy milk chocolate gently rested on top. Sweet, creamy, rich, but not-too-chocolatey, these Galaxy Chocolate Cupcakes are a prefect representation of this famous chocolate brand.

There has been so much hype for this recipe and I can’t tell you how happy that makes me. I’ve been planning on creating these for a long time now, and the reception to just a few unedited photos of the finished result has had my Instagram and Twitter notifications going through the roof. You guys just know how tasty these are going to be, and I really hope you love them if you do get round to making a batch.

  1. If you were to do these as caramel, what caramel would you use?

    1. Hi Debbi! Personally I would make the caramel myself but you can buy good jars or tins of caramel from supermarket own-brands or Carnation nowadays. I would recommend hollowing out the centre of the cupcake and spooning the caramel in there!

      1. Lovely, thanks for get back to me x x
