RASPBERRY LIMON
First trial of these cupcakes. Good, but not entirely happy.
Number 1, I wanted to soak these in Bacardi Limon (yumm), but silly me was unprepared and living in Utah, can't buy any liquor anywhere on a Sunday.
Number 2.. while grocery shopping, the first store didnt have any raspberries. I went a little further to another store, only to find day marked down, old raspberries. They came out just fine in the frosting, but I'm positive it would have been so much better with some fresh ones. I wanted to top all my cupcakes with a raspberry, but they were yucky.
Number three: I was not thrilled with my frosting today. Too runny for me and a little too sweet. Needs worked on.
Number 4: I soaked these in a sugar/lemon juice glaze. Super yummy, also super sticky.
So, while really yummy, I'm trying these again, next time, soaking them in rum, using fresher raspberries, and making my frosting more creamy, less sweet.
