Seasonally Succulent Treats

The Fresh Strawberry Cupcake with Coconut Frosting is Perfectly Sweet

— July 1, 2011 — Lifestyle
There are few things I find more delicious than fresh fruit and baked goods, so it is no surprise that the recipe for a fresh strawberry cupcake with coconut frosting jumped out at me. The recipe calls for fresh strawberries, and at this time of the year, I would expect nothing less!

While some might find the combination of strawberries and coconut frosting overwhelming in the sweet department, I find it irresistible. The fresh strawberry cupcake recipe is also infused with vanilla flavoring, increasing its sweetness even more. Topped with blush-pink sprinkles on the thick coconut icing, this summertime treat is perfect to serve as dessert at your next barbeque or backyard gathering.
