Hey, the paper liner peeling off is most likely caused by moisture that has accumulated in or around the cake. When your cupcakes are baked, allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before carefully removing them to cool down on a wire rack. The steam from the cakes can collect in the paper cases if they are left in the tin for too long. Hope this helps 🙂
