These mini cakes from Epi contributor Joy Cho are dressed in a variety of glazes for a simple—yet sophisticated—springtime snack. Including sweet rice flour and rich sour cream means they’re plush, tender, and wonderfully moist. Use a mini bundt pan to give them a unique gem-like shape, or a standard muffin pan—either way, they’ll be a feast for the eyes and perfect for sharing.
