VERY GOOD Lychee Cupcakes

This is the other cupcake that I had baked for parents' day. Personally, I like this very much. It is so simple to make and really soft, moist and delicious. I got it from my colleague, Tricia. Had reduced the sugar and slight changes. Will definitely make it again. Try it out.
