I came across another Steemian's post recently for an Argentinian-style birthday cake recipe

A couple of weeks ago, @danilamarilu posted this terrific Argentinian-Style Birthday Cake Recipe

I present my version - no recipe, just my pictures and words :)

The main ingredients striking a pose. ingredients


Not surprisingly, the strawberries were out of season and tasted as such. To remedy this problem, I "marinated" the sliced berries in fresh orange juice and white balsamic vinegar for a few hours. ingredients2


In recognition of Valentine's Day, I added some food coloring to the cake batter for a soft pink hue. mixer


Q: Will the finished product maintain these peaks?batter_up


A: Nope done


I used a paring knife to carefully cut out the top part of each cupcake, which I set aside momentarily.icing1


I applied a small amount of dulce de leche, then added one marinated strawberry slice.
Lastly, I poured enough condensed milk to cover the strawberry slice and replaced the top I had previously removed.icing2


With its "hat" back in place, I used fluffy marshmallow frosting to cover the top of the cupcake. I used more strawberry slices to decorate some of the frosted cupcakes.icing3


All done! complete_cakes


On a side note, I omitted the freshly shaved coconut because the coconut I purchased was not of the freshest variety, as this picture clearly shows.
Ew! bad_coco1


Apparently, I do not know how to select a fresh coconut. This one was bad from the grocery store; although, it did make for an interesting photo opportunity. bad_coco2

I like that Idea of putting the fruit and cream inside the cupcake. Looks delicious!

Thanks! They were really good, devoured faster than I could have imagined ;)

Wow! Your version looks SO yummy! @enternamehere!
I feel so happy that you've tried it out!
Hey and btw, they should give you a refund at the store where you bought that coconut!
Steem on Homie!

Thank you!! I didn't even think of getting a refund, but yes, it was definitely damaged goods. I was really confused at first when it opened, I wasn't expecting mold inside...
I'm glad I could try it and share :D

I really love this post, and I hope ou get your refund or a new coconut!

I will try again in the future with a new coconut ;) I was disappointed because I really like fresh coconut

I feel ya, I always get my coconuts at natural grocery

Looks beautiful, upvoted
