As you can see, they have a pretty pink color. That's the raspberries, baby! I took frozen raspberries (I would have gone fresh, but it's not raspberry season, and fresh ones were spendy. Really spendy. ) So I basically made a raspberry coulis, making sure to remove as much of the seeds as possible, then added the juice of 3 lemons to that, then using that as the liquid base of my buttercream (instead of milk). The result is a tart but smooth buttercream, that goes soo well with the lemon cupcake. I am quite proud of this.
Tomorrow, I'm going to take these delicious cupcakes to Youth Services, where the employees, who work super hard, can enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Good gods woman! Those look amazing. Think one would make it through the mail to us? -Jen
I know there is a way to make cupcakes in jars, and they can be sent through the mail that way. We could probably set that up. :D
