Ingredients

Our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes are made with the finest ingredients to ensure a delectable and high-quality treat. Here are the key ingredients we use:

• Fresh strawberries: We source the juiciest and ripest strawberries to infuse our cupcakes with the natural sweetness and vibrant flavor of this beloved fruit.
• Butter: We use premium butter to create a rich and creamy texture in our cupcakes.
• Sugar: The perfect amount of sugar is added to balance the sweetness and enhance the strawberry flavor.
• Eggs: Fresh eggs are incorporated to provide structure and moisture to the cupcakes.
• All-purpose flour: We use high-quality flour to achieve a light and tender crumb.
• Baking powder: This leavening agent helps the cupcakes rise and creates a fluffy texture.
• Milk: We use milk to add moisture and richness to the cupcakes.
• Vanilla extract: A touch of vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor profile of the cupcakes.

In addition to these key ingredients, we also take pride in using only the freshest and highest quality dairy products. Our butter is sourced from local farms that prioritize animal welfare and sustainable farming practices. The eggs we use are organic and free-range, ensuring that our cupcakes are not only delicious but also made with ethical considerations in mind.

Furthermore, our commitment to quality extends to the flour we use. We carefully select a premium all-purpose flour that is unbleached and free from any additives or preservatives. This ensures that our cupcakes have a light and airy texture, allowing the flavors to shine through.

When it comes to the strawberries, we work closely with local farmers to source the best produce available. We believe in supporting local agriculture and promoting sustainability, which is why we prioritize using seasonal strawberries whenever possible. This not only guarantees the freshest and most flavorful strawberries but also reduces our carbon footprint by minimizing transportation distances.

Lastly, we understand the importance of using pure and high-quality extracts to enhance the taste of our cupcakes. Our vanilla extract is made from real vanilla beans, carefully sourced from trusted suppliers who share our commitment to excellence. This ensures that every bite of our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes is bursting with the authentic and natural flavors of vanilla.

Preparation

Our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes are carefully crafted to ensure the perfect balance of flavors. Here’s how we prepare them:

1. Preheat the oven to the recommended temperature. For our strawberry cupcakes, we suggest preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This step is crucial as it helps to incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a lighter and more tender cupcake.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This ensures that each egg is fully incorporated into the batter, creating a smooth and cohesive mixture.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. This step helps to evenly distribute the leavening agent throughout the dry ingredients, ensuring that the cupcakes rise evenly.
5. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. This technique helps to prevent overmixing and ensures that all the ingredients are fully combined without developing too much gluten, resulting in a tender cupcake.
6. Gently fold in the fresh strawberries. The addition of fresh strawberries adds a burst of flavor and a delightful texture to the cupcakes. Be careful not to overmix at this stage, as it can cause the strawberries to break down and release too much moisture into the batter.
7. Spoon the batter into cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full. This allows room for the cupcakes to rise without overflowing during baking.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for the recommended time, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. The baking time may vary depending on your oven, so it’s important to keep an eye on the cupcakes towards the end of the baking time to ensure they are perfectly baked.
9. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting. Cooling the cupcakes completely is essential as it prevents the frosting from melting and sliding off the cupcakes. It also allows the flavors to develop and the cupcakes to firm up, making them easier to handle and decorate.

With these careful steps and attention to detail, our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes are sure to delight your taste buds with their moistness, lightness, and irresistible strawberry flavor. Whether you’re baking them for a special occasion or simply to satisfy your sweet cravings, these cupcakes are a delicious treat that everyone will love.

Strawberry Frosting

No strawberry cupcake is complete without a delicious strawberry frosting. Our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes are topped with a creamy and flavorful frosting made with real strawberries. Here’s how we make it:

1. Puree fresh strawberries in a blender until smooth.
2. In a mixing bowl, beat butter until creamy.
3. Add powdered sugar gradually, beating well after each addition.
4. Beat in the strawberry puree until the frosting is smooth and fluffy.
5. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag and pipe it onto the cooled cupcakes.
6. To add an extra touch of strawberry flavor and visual appeal, you can also fold in some finely chopped strawberries into the frosting. This will create small bursts of fruity goodness with every bite.
7. If you prefer a stronger strawberry flavor, you can add a few drops of strawberry extract to the frosting. This will intensify the taste and give it a more pronounced strawberry aroma.
8. For a creamier texture, you can also add a tablespoon or two of heavy cream to the frosting mixture. This will make it even smoother and easier to pipe onto the cupcakes.
9. If you want to get creative with your strawberry frosting, you can experiment with different piping tips to create decorative designs. Try using a star tip for a classic swirl, or a petal tip for a more intricate flower-like design.
10. Once you have piped the frosting onto the cupcakes, you can garnish them with a fresh strawberry slice or a sprinkle of edible glitter for an extra touch of elegance.
11. Remember to refrigerate the cupcakes after frosting them to ensure that the strawberry frosting stays firm and holds its shape.

With this delicious strawberry frosting recipe, your cupcakes will not only look beautiful but also taste absolutely divine. The natural sweetness and tanginess of the strawberries will complement the fluffy cake perfectly, creating a delightful treat that will leave everyone wanting more.

Storage and Serving Suggestions

To ensure the freshness and flavor of our Cake Up Strawberry cupcakes, we recommend the following storage and serving suggestions:

• Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. This will help maintain their moistness and prevent them from drying out.
• If you need to store them for a longer period, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. However, keep in mind that refrigeration may slightly alter the texture of the cupcakes.
• Before serving, allow the refrigerated cupcakes to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This will bring out their full flavor and ensure a more enjoyable eating experience.
• For an extra touch, garnish the cupcakes with fresh strawberry slices or a sprinkle of powdered sugar. This will not only enhance their visual appeal but also add a burst of freshness to each bite.
• These cupcakes are best enjoyed within a few days of purchase to savor their freshness and flavor. While they may still be delicious after a few days, their texture and taste may gradually deteriorate over time.
