      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

  • Made these for the first time

    Submitted by thermobsetion on 1. September 2016 - 14:16.

    Made these for the first time today for the cake stall at my son's sports carnival tomorrow. The house is just filled with such a beautiful aroma, even my husband commented on it! I have an excess of lemons from our tree so I've gone ahead and made a second batch for us to keep at home too. Can't wait to try the complete product although I know it will be amazing because all the components are so far

    These cupcakes were SO light and fluffy and the icing really complemented them beautifully. I've made them 3 times already and they're a real hit. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

  • Desperately need to buy some

    Submitted by Thermo Loving Liv on 31. August 2015 - 18:18.

    Desperately need to buy some groceries, so unfortunately I didn't have enough ingredients to complete this recipe. I was only able to make the actual cupcakes, minus the curd and icing!! The cupcakes on their own were devine! I only got my thermomix last week and prior to that I've never been able to make cupcakes that aren't dry and stuck to the casings. I will definitely be making these again!! Ps - I quietly sat in the kitchen eating a lot of the batter while my 3 year old was in the lounge, and even after eating a lot of the scrumptious batter I reckon I could have actually made 18-20 cupcakes.

  • So lovely to hear you enjoyed

    Submitted by evelina68 on 13. August 2015 - 21:22.

    So lovely to hear you enjoyed the recipe  tmrc_emoticons.)  I tend to make the curd a few hours or a day before so it sets more as it cools.  Glad to hear the cupcakes retained their texture.  They are a favourite in our house.  I often just make the cupcake base for the kids and ice with a plain icing sugar, lemon juice icing tmrc_emoticons.)

  • I made these for my husband

    Submitted by rachelpctaylor on 12. August 2015 - 19:57.

    I made these for my husband to take to work this week.  I only used about half of the curd mixture so I'm planning to use that for a pudding.  I was concerned about how runny the curd was And if that would affect the cakes.  Freshly prepared they were delicious and I tried one the next day to see if they got soggy in the middle.  The cake maintained a firm texture and they tasted wonderful.  A little extra work than a plain cupcake but well worth it.  Got the thumbs up from hubby and his workmates too.  Thanks evelina68!
