"  Would you like to be involved in a study that only requires you eat cupcakes? Students at the Swedish Uppsala University certainly did when asked by PhD students conducting an experiment on fat. The only catch: They have to eat four cupcakes a day for six weeks. More from Delish: 20 Low-Fat Desserts The 40 volunteers are participating in a study on how fat affects the human body, according to The Local Sweden. The cupcakes will not come from a local Swedish version of Sprinkles or Magnolia. They will be prepared by Fredrik Rosqvist, a PhD student specializing in fatty acids and metabolism who is the lead researcher/baker for this study. &amp;quot;The idea is that different kinds of fat have different effects on the human body,&amp;quot; Rosqvist told Sveriges Radio. More from Delish: Cupcake Decorating Tips The study will begin in September. Those participating are all between the ages of 20 and 35 and have a normal, healthy Body Mass Index (BMI) between 20 and 27. The volunteers will be expected to live and eat as they normally would and simply add the four cupcakes a day. Rosqvist believes that the subjects&amp;#039; weights will increase by about 3% over the six-week experiment. No word as to what kind of cupcakes Rosqvist will be baking, but judging from the ingredients he has stockpiled (130 kilos of flour, 105 kilos of sugar, 105 kilos of oil, 50 kilos of eggs, and 25 kilos of milk powder) we&amp;#039;re guessing they are of the plain variety. This experiment could be much improved if Rosqvist would just get a little more creative with his cupcakes. So, to provide inspiration for him and for your own at-home &amp;quot;studies,&amp;quot; we offer up a few of our favorite cupcake recipes.
