My Mother-in-law's 77th Birthday Cupcakes



So I don't know how my mother-in-law or her guests will react, but one thing I know is this : these raspberry-chocolate cupcakes with Swiss Meringue vanilla Buttercream are so yummy, I could die. I made half without the raspberry because I didn't have enough left at home to make more, but it doesn't matter, because these chocolate chip chewy mini cupcakes are fantastic alone as well. The topper is a royal icing transfer, and I figured every woman like a little rose, so there you go. I think my practicing is going well, so when my website hits the internet, come valentine's day 2012, I should know what I am doing!!! Hope you like these!!!

  1. Do you put the raspberry in the middle, maybe you can cut it in half and post a pic.. Ro

  2. The flowers remind me of remembrance day poppies, maybe because it is remembrance day.. Ro

  3. I wanted to post a picture of the inside, but unfortunately I didn't have one to cut in half-I had to bring them to Andy's mom's house! What I did was make a thick raspberry sauce and I piped it right into the cupcake-it is very dense though, so it didn't go super deep and overflowed-that's hidden by the cream...I don't know that the picture would have been very nice...I copied a rose drawing...so if it looks like a poppy-it's not my fault!!!!
