A Surprise Inside...

     Here are a couple of photos of the INSIDE of the vanilla cupcakes with fresh strawberry buttercream i posted yesterday. The shape on the inside of the cupcakes was meant to be a bright pink tulip, but most ended up looking like bright pink squares. However, everyone still managed to get a kick out of them and thought they were soo clever.

      The shape on the inside is almost identifiable, but i've notice that heart shapes work the best from the other cupcakes i've seen like this.
    
      So if you ever want to impress your family/friends, or you're just feeling creative, these cupcakes won't let you down! I promise!!

if any one would like the recipe for my vanilla cake batter or buttercream frosting, i'd be more than happy to make a post about them. 

And also, i'll post a recipe/directions for the shape-inside-the-cupcake, cupcakes.
