Moist Strawberry Cupcakes
Mother’s Day is just around the corner, that is exactly two days away and many of you are still ย busy thinking what gifts to get for your mom to show how much you love her. I’m sure your mom will appreciate anything you get for her. Besides sending flowers and gifts, why not also bake a cake that your mom would enjoy. Here is a very moist and delicious (no egg yolks) strawberry cupcake recipe which I want to share with you. These cupcakes are wonderful when served warm for firstly you get to taste the crispy crust and at the same time enjoy the soft texture of the cake….heavenly! I also played with fondant a little, made some roses and leaves, then decorated them on the cake. If you think that making fondant flowers are too time consuming, why not frost the cake with cream cheese and insert a cupcake topper on top. I’m sure you mom will be very pleased and impressed ๐

Wishing a Wonderful Mother’s Day to All the Mothers in This World.ย

Thanks Ai Li. So how is your cheesecake? Hope it turns out well.Cupcake topper is a tag attached to a toothpick or lollipop stick and inserted into your decorated cupcakes
