These cupcakes were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably use less sugar in the filling next time.

These cupcakes were a little more difficult to make than I expected, but they were worth the effort. The filling was a little runny, but the flavor was great. I would definitely make these again, but I would probably adjust the filling recipe.

I love the combination of textures in these cupcakes. The crispy cannoli shell, the creamy filling, and the soft cupcake all come together perfectly. I also love the flavor of the filling. It's not too sweet, and it has a hint of cinnamon.
