Cupcakes vs Muffins
Cupcakes contain a batter that can be thoroughly beaten - their batters are not usually sensitive to overmixing. They are usually very sweet and often meant to be iced/frosted. They are considered a form of dessert and are usually not meant to be served for breakfast. A cupcake is a hand held, mini dessert cake.
Muffins - contain a batter than is very sensitive to overmixing(overmixing produces a too hard texture and low rising muffins). Muffins are not usually iced and are often served with coffee or tea or as a breakfast bread or snack. Muffins are often sweet, but also can be savory. Muffin batters are very similar (and in some cakes the same as) quick bread batters. A muffin is a hand held mini quick bread.

A muffin is classified as a quick bread, and is typically not as sweet and fluffy as a cupcake. When preparing muffins you do not want to over-mix the batter.
Cupcake is classified as a dessert, and is basically a small cake. It is beaten with a mixer, and is typically lighter and fluffier than a muffin. A muffin is much denser.

Cupcakes are made with a cake batter and are somewhat flat and most are iced.Muffins are
usually made with a muffin mix.But I think that in the line of muffins there is usually some type of
fruit or nut involved and they swell up and out .

A Cupcake has icing, sprinkles and its flavours tipicaly are chocolate or vanilla. Its more like candy. A muffin is supposedly more nutritious becuase its flavour usually is fruit and it may nuts.
