Everyone else is right about the consistency of the original recipe, they turn out really dense. To get light and fluffy cupcakes make the following changes (I tried this myself and it works great:
-Split the flour up and use 1 cup all purpose flour and 1 cup self rising flour
-Omit the salt, baking powder, and baking soda
-Add 3 eggs to the tomato soup before mixing in with the dry ingredients
-You don't have to, but it makes it a lot more fun if you add some red food coloring
With the changes, the cupcake is really delicious! I had rave reviews from all the people who doubted how good a tomato soup cupcake would be too. It definitely doesn't taste at all like tomato soup, but it makes one of the best spice cakes I've had in a long time.

These were pretty good except your indredient list and your frosting recipe do not match up... and unfortunately I didnt realize it until too late. The ingredients list says 8 oz of cream cheese and 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar (which is all the sugar I had and then down below the frosting recipe says 4 oz of cream cheese but yet 2 1/4 cups confections sugar. I was quite confused.

Excellent and easy recipe. Do not be decieved however.... from the name you may think Tomato Soup is the star of this show but it is not. You cannot even taste it in the cupcake. The star of this show is definately the clove. This cupcake tastes exactly like a spice cake.... But I LOVE it!!

It was kinda freaky to put tomato soup in a cupcake recipe, but oMG! this was so tasty! I didnt tell anyone the secret ingredient until after they ate it. No WAY was the general response. The texture was a little different, but thats ok.

I was a little scared to make this recipe. I did it more as an experiment rather than making something that I thought would be a crowd favorite. I was pleasantly surprised. Everyone loved it!!!!!! It was so tasty and moist. The only change I made was that I used creamy tomato soup rather than regular tomato soup. It was amazing! I'm not sure if the creamy tomato soup did this but the cupcakes actually tasted like extremely moist and flavorful pumpkin cupcakes rather than a strong tomato flavor. I would definitely make this recipe again. It will receive great reviews by everyone and is a great conversation starter.
