A muffin pan is also called a cupcake pan since it works for both kinds of products. For muffins, I prefer a jumbo muffin pan (with about 5 oz capacity in each compartment), which is in accordance with my muffin recipes. I believe that muffins should be larger for greater satisfaction. You can use a regular muffin pan (with about 3 oz capacity in each compartment) or any other size muffin pan (for my muffin recipes) by simply having more muffins or adjusting the recipe.

For cupcakes, I prefer a regular-sized pan since they also have frosting, and it will be more a convenient for portion size. Whatever size you decide, make sure that it will have properly sized and fitting liners. Best is to buy liners in bulk since each one will be significantly cheaper.
