There are several ways to prevent the walls of the cupcakes from sticking to freshly baked cupcakes.One of them is the use of fat. Spray pans with cooking spray or brush with a little melted butter.You can additionally dust them with a little flour, cocoa, or coconut flakes before adding the batter.
