When preparing a cupcake, it is very important to take into account that vegetable oil and milk are measured in grams, not in milliliters.
The color of the yellow dough will depend on the quality of the eggs. If you use eggs from domestic chickens, whose yolk is bright orange, then the color of the dough will be saturated yellow. I had ordinary store-bought eggs, so the dough on the yolks is pale yellow.
