YUM-MY! Best Cupcakes I've EVER had!

Cupcakes are muffins with plastic surgery ~ Anonymous


A little while ago I tangled into a confusing web of cupcakes. I had stumbled upon the Oh Sugar! blog while trying to find ideas on the web for decorating a giant cupcake. The Oh Sugar! blog then lead me to Cakespy, (which I had visited before) but this time a recipe caught my eye, which then brought me to my now Favorite blog of all time. Pȃtisserie Natalie !!! I sometimes get lost in her blog for hours! Well, the recipe that caught my eye on Cakespy was by Natalie. It was a delicious sounding cupcake recipe. The base calls for a lemon pound cake and  the frosting is a blackberry buttercream & raspberry buttercreams! YUM! 
I knew I had to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! They were DELISH!!


Unfortunately my 1M tip went M.I.A (and I was real mad!) so the frosting is not as pretty as it should be...  but you get the idea! 

Anyhow, I brought these over to a friends house for a dinner party and left with an empty platter. Most people who don't even like cupcakes liked them! I found they tasted Sooo fresh and summery! To make these delicious cupcakes you don't even need to make a trip to the grocery store, you'll probably have everything on hand at home. So, go over to cakespy and check out the recipe for Lemon Berry Cupcakes! 



This is not a very complicated recipe, yet this is not a recipe you can make with a couple of extra minutes. You need to have the time do it properly. ( Don't be like me, I tried to whip these up in half an hour before our friends dinner party! :( That didn't go over to well with my husband, because I ended up having about 50 tantrums trying to rush these guys- I chalk it up to jet lag more then anything!)

Until next time (which shouldn't be too long because I'm trying to constantly use my kitchen aid mixer) try these cupcakes and leave me some feedback!!!
