Looking for a fresh, fruity, original cupcake recipe? Then this could be the one for you. Raspberries give a sweet zing and bursts of colour, with rosewater providing a wonderfully subtle floral scent. The decoration on these cupcakes is undeniably beautiful. Using actual rose petals sprinkled with sugar is a lovely touch which lends itself brilliantly to a themed tea party, and positioned on a tiered cupcake stand, would make a stunning substitute for a traditional wedding cake.

Carob Cupcakes with Chicory, Dates, Figs, and Almonds
These are cupcakes with a difference. They could easily be mistaken for carrot cupcakes or even little Zucchini breads. However, the ingredients are really dates, figs, almonds and chicory and are finished off with a topping of almond butter frosting. They are most appetizing to look at and very delicious to munch. Furthermore, they are most tasty for starting the day with, and to nibble at breakfast time with your cup of tea.

Surprise Cupcakes
Are you ready for a sweet summertime surprise? Of course! These “surprise cupcakes” contain nectarines! Yes, you read that right. Nectarines. The summer fruit staple. The batter is made of nectarines, lemon zest, sugar, whole wheat pastry flour and a host of other things, most on the traditional “cupcake batter” side of things. Do not forget about the honey whipped cream frosting (made of honey and chilled whipping cream) as it is the perfect topping for these sweet surprises!

Nectarine Cupcake
For a fresh, fruity and fun summertime treat, try these nectarine cupcakes. They consist of vanilla cupcake batter (flour, milk, sugar, eggs, butter and the usual ingredients) filled with chopped nectarines. To make them, put some batter into the cupcake liner, spoon in some of the chopped nectarines, and then cover them with more batter. Bake and top with a homemade whipped frosting (sour cream, heavy cream and sugar) and a few slices of nectarines. Tasty and sweet!

Apple Cupcakes
For an interesting twist on healthy junk food, check out these apple cupcakes. Instead of mixing together flour, butter, salt and all of the “classic” ingredients, these treats consist of whole apples, nut butter, breakfast cobbler, unsweetened coconut and pudding. Yes, pudding. (Use a healthy version like chocolate carob pumpkin pudding to make these the ultimate healthy snack.) Serve the apples raw, sliced and topped with these goodies. The results are healthy, tasty and amaziningly good for you!

Meyer Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes
Nothing says “summer” quite like a lemon and raspberry cupcake. These scrumptious cupcakes contain both. The batter starts off as a vanilla cupcake (butter, sugar, vanilla bean paste, you know the drill) but gets interesting once they are baked and cooled. The lemon flavor comes from the Meyer Lemon Curd that gets squeezed into the center of each cupcake. Top with homemade vanilla buttercream frosting, a dusting of sanding sugar and, to top it all off, a plump, juicy raspberry.

These are made into perfection. Make sure you pair a hot glass of milk or espresso to balance the sweetness of these banana cupcakes.

“Zuccotto” Cupcakes
If you’ve been looking for something completely unique, then look no further than these Zuccotto cupcakes. The batter is a simple white cake mix with some finely chopped chocolate added (despite the name of these treats, there is no liquor anywhere in the recipe.) After baking, these cupcakes are filled with a mix of whipping cream, hazelnuts, raspberries and toffee bits. They are then topped with two different types of frosting: cream cheese and ganache, for a treat that is truly original!

Watermelon Cupcakes
Watermelon cupcakes (yes, you read that right) are the perfect summertime treat that you can enjoy year-round, especially since they are made from watermelon jelly. The cupcake batter contains watermelon jelly, basil, olive oil, flour, milk, salt, eggs, sugar and dried yeast. Rather than demolishing the sweetness of the watermelon, add to it by dipping these cupcakes in even more watermelon jelly after baking them (or slather that jelly on like frosting.) The next step? Sit back and enjoy!
