Strawberry Cupcakes


This strawberry themed party is adorable. The only thing that would have made it better was if MY strawberry cupcakes were on that stand!



I made these cupcakes for a wedding shower. They are jumbo size cupcakes with a strawberry filling. The icing is a buttercream with strawberries pureed mixed in. There is a hint of red food coloring in the icing to make it a light pink. I topped each one with a strawberry slice garnish and gold sprinkles. 
A simple buttercream recipe i use is this one, by martha stewart. It is easy and the consistency is good for piping the icing. I like to add other ingredients to this recipe depending on the cupcake.
