Description

A recipe I made for cupcakes with real strawberries and strawberry flavour in them. Pretty easy and look great, and all natural flavouring and colouring!

Instructions

1. 

   Make the cupcakes: i) beat 125g sugar and 125g butter/margarine ii) add 2 eggs to this and whisk in iii)add a handful of chopped strawberries and 1tsp vanilla and fold in iv) fold in 125g flour v) bake in muffin cases in medium-warm oven (gas5) until golden on top vi) cool

2. Make up the icing by adding about 6 mashed strawberries (mash with back of a fork) to 50g butter/marg and 400g icing sugar. Put this in an icing bag.

3. 

   Now decorate by icing the top of the cupcake and adding strawberries to the top! I also used some edible irridescent glitter to add sparkle.
