depends on a ton of variables but just under 200 give or take a few

1 kg is 8 cups flour when I googled it

1 cup flour makes about a dozen cupcakes

16x12=192

i don’t know what the two tablespoon measure relates to if batter or flour — two tablespoons of batter is a mini cupcake not medium — if two tablespoons of flour idk?

Yah K8 I’m puzzled by the 2T thing too   That would sure be a small cupcake   But then not being in the US it might be the normal for where they are

I wonder if those are Australian tablespoons. Australian tablespoons are 4 teaspoons instead of 3 like the rest of the world. I use 1.5 ounces of batter for my cupcakes, which is about 3 American tablespoons and only 1 teaspoon more than 2 Australian tablespoons.  

My recipe uses 320g of flour and yields 30 cupcakes.  So, I'd get 187 cupcakes from 2KG of flour. Based on that, I could get 281 cupcakes @ 2 American tablespoons each or 210 cupcakes at 2 Australian tablespoons each.

I use 150g flour, 150g butter, 150g sugar and 150g of eggs to make 12 medium Victoria sponge cupcakes each using 50g batter. 

So from 2kg of each ingredient I could make 13.33 times my recipe which is 160 cupcakes.
