Steps:
- preheat oven to 170C/Fan 150C/Gas 5
- Cream / beat butter or marg with caster sugar until its blended and creamy, i use muscle and wooden spoon, you can use an electric whisk.
- Beat in the eggs 1 at time, try room temp eggs to stop curdling but dont worry too much if does curdle. Beat in one at time, vanilla, lemon zest and juice, milk and baking powder.
- Gradually add the sefted self raising flour, or sprinkle from height as i do to get air into it. Beat the mixture until its smooth, creamy but firmish. Something like "Angel Delight"
- Fill 12 cupcake cases.. i put the case into a fairy cake tin to keep the caked in position as they are rising. Each case will require a generous dessert spoon full until just below the cake case. Cook in middle of oven for around 15 min.
- You will know the cakes are ready when they are golden and spring back after a light press.
- Allow cakes to cool on a rack for around 10 - 15 min.. you can start making icing.
- For the icing, first mix in the butter into the icing sugar, be patient it will seem like too little butter but keep working it. Then add the water and vanilla essence, work the mixture until a smooth, firm but workable paste. You may need to add more water / icing sugar as you go.
- Take a generous amount on a wide knife put on cake and rotate cake around until you have an even coated amount of icing sugar.
- Allow to set for 5 / 10 min and enjoy!!

Steps:
- First, preheat the oven to 180 degrees and line a fairy cake tin with cake cases.
- Take your softened fat and place it in a bowl. Then proceed to beat it as if you were creaming it(DO NOT ADD IN SUGAR AT THIS STAGE).
- Next, add in the sugar (make sure it has been sieved to achieve most air) and cream the two ingredients together.
- Using a separate bowl (this will have to be quite large), beat the egg. To make your cakes extra fluffy keep beating it even if you think it is done. The perfect outcome would be to end up with a "blob" of "froth" but that is not an easy feat. Then, spoon around a quarter of the egg to the beaten fat and beat it in thoroughly. To achieve best results make a well for the egg and when first starting to beat it in, mix the mixtures together like you would cement. After that, pour the mix into the rest of the egg and again, beat thoroughly. if you are adding an extract to this recipe then now is the time to do it, beating into the mix.
- Fold in the flour (after it has been sieved). if you are unsure as to how to do this then draw figures of eight around the bowl, coming up at the top and bottom.
- As with he eggs, beat the milk but this time continue unti it is a "blob" of "froth". Then, fold this into the mixture. the cake mix should be a good consistency, softly dropping off the spoon. Finally, spoon into the cake cases
- Bake for around 10 minutes or until golden brown and when inserted, a skewer comes out clean. Then leave to cool.

- Break the eggs into a separate bowl (spoon out any bits of shell that fall in) and add them to the bowl with the vanilla. Mix everything together.
- Divide between the cases using a spoon, scraping it off with a knife. Ask a grown-up helper to put the tray in the oven for 20 minutes.

- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4 and line a 12-hole bun tin with 12 paper fairy cake cases. (Or for deep American-style cupcakes, line a 6-hole muffin tin with larger muffin cases.)
- Place the softened butter in a large bowl then beat with an electric hand-whisk until pale and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until fully combined.
- Add a little of the beaten egg to the butter mixture, then whisk again. Gradually add the egg, little by little, whisking after each addition. It’s important to go slowly here, as adding too much egg at once can cause the mix to split.
- Sift the flour into the bowl. Using a large metal spoon or spatula, fold the flour into the cake mix.
- Add the vanilla and the salt and stir to combine. Add the milk to get the cake mix to a soft dropping consistency, where a heaped spoonful of mixture falls off the spoon after tipping it for few seconds.
