some extra tips to make perfect domed cupcakes:

Always read the recipe for exact instructions as the batter density may vary.

If you are baking in a pan with a dark or non-stick surface, you should lower the recommended recipe temperature by 25°F to avoid over-browning. Dark pans give your cakes a darker finish when baked. 

Try to make cups with non-stick pan spray before baking. so that they won’t stick. 

Always place cups on a cookie sheet or sheet pan for level baking and easy removal from the oven. 

You may need to add more baking time for some shapes. 

To remove cupcakes, turn them upside down and apply gentle pressure to the bottom of the cupcakes while gently peeling the cups away.

conclusion:

how long to bake cupcakes depends upon several factors, like the size of the cupcake, quantity of the cupcakes and at how much temperature you’re baking.

generally, you should bake your cupcakes at 350 for 11-13 min for normal, 10-11 for mini cupcakes, and 15-18 min for jumbo cupcakes.

but don’t completely rely on these numbers, no one can give you the exact timing you’ve to figure out on your own.
