A Strawberry Cupcake Recipe
that you'll Salute!

This strawberry cupcake and strawberry buttercream frosting is a perfect treat to beat the summer heat. It's fresh and simply tasty with fresh strawberries, strawberry puree, and strawberry buttercream. It would be great for bridal shower cupcakes, baby shower cupcakes, wedding cupcakes and other events.

They were then dressed in pink camoflauge cupcake wrappers (aka cupcake wraps, cupcake sleeves, cupcake holders) for a Cupcake Couture Blog Party where bloggers showed the unique ways to use our Bella Cupcake Couture cupcake liners and cupcake wrappers.

This cupcake was created by Betsy of Java Cupcake who is a very talented baking blogger.
