Strawberry & Cream Cupcakes


I recently came across a really neat blog called sugar crawler and
that is where I came across this recipe which I immediately
fell in love with because of how visual appealing it is, sorry my 
pictures are not as fabulous as hers but I am pretty sure these cupcakes
where just as delicious! I loved how simple this recipe was to prepare.
You should definitely try it now while you can still get fresh strawberries.
