Separate the whites and yolks of the eggs, then beat the whites in a clean bowl (free of fat and water) with a high-speed mixer to remove lumps, then add half of the sugar in the recipe and beat again with a high-speed mixer so that the whites do not shake when you turn the bowl over. Now you need to put the whites in the refrigerator.
2. Then add the rest of the powdered sugar, vanilla and cardamom to the batter in another bowl and mix again with a high speed. Every 30 seconds, guide the yolks stuck to the side of the container to the center of the container and stir again until the yolks become creamy and elastic. (Removing the yolks prevents the bad smell of eggs inside the cake.)
3. At this stage, you should slowly add the saffron that you have brewed with boiling water to the yolks that are being mixed with the high speed of the mixer and continue stirring. (Adding hot saffron quickly will cause the yolks to close and the cupcakes to smell.)
4. Then put the mixer on low and add the oil to the yolks, mix for 20 seconds.
