LEMONADE & BLACKBERRY MINI CUPCAKES (100% Natural Coloring - NO FOOD DYE)
Hey Steemians! I have another food photo shoot and recipe that I'll know you'll enjoy, LEMONADE & BLACKBERRY MINI CUPCAKES (100% Natural Coloring - NO FOOD DYE)
All of these photos were taken with my Nikon D5300 and my favorite Lens, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G, ALL CONTENT IS MINE AND ORIGINAL!
Another note: This post is basically a 'do over.' I posted this recipe before, but it was one of my very first posts when I had no clue. Now, on a good day, I have somewhat of a clue. This is my first attempt at a 'do over,' and I would like to hear the community's opinion on 'do overs.' How much amazing content have you posted that got lost in your early days? And, what about those times when you put everything you had into a post and it bombed? One of the common themes here is 'don't give up,' and 'Steem On.' So, here's an attempt at giving some content another shot. So what do you think? I'm attentively listening.
So these cupcakes, aren’t they kinda adorables???? I sort of love their mini size and loud colors. I thought about making a full size cake to decorate, but after I’d made the frosting and I saw how lovely the natural color was, I knew I wanted to keep it really simple and do cuppycakes. Don’t worry though, I’m still in a cake-decorating mood so I’m sure I’ll be sharing one soon. Flavor ideas anyone???
Okay, so simplicity is what I decided to focus on and what is easier than using the already gorgeous powers of fresh fruit to decorate? There are actually all kinds of things you can do with things like berries. Strawberries for example, there are a lot of different ways to use them as your edible art.
Feel free to make these cupcakes regular size if you don’t have a mini pan, I promise they’ll taste just as good. Oh, and just FYI to anyone who, like me, tries to avoid adding food dye at all costs, the frosting color is 100% natural from the berries. Isn’t it gorgeous? Just one more reason that you need to be baking them right now, so get to it!
My recipe format is always the same. I'd love to hear your opinion if it is easily readable or if you think it could use some improvement?
