Those look fabulous! What a nice woman to give away her recipe!
yum! those are so cute! :)
Those look delicious! I definitely want to give them a try.
Strawberries are my favorite fruit and these sound amazing!!
Oooohhh I went to a baby shower today but didn't make it over to the assorted cupcakes tray early enough to get a strawberry one. Now I'm oh so sad.
These look great! I was actually hoping to make an assortment of cupcakes sometime soon and was thinking strawberry would be a great addition. Thanks for the recipe :)
Looks yummy! I'll have to make them for my office. I think we have the same cake stand..emma from PB? thanks for the recipe.

What is a brand of strawberry liquor? I do not think I have ever seen this before. It looks great and I love your site. Thanks!
They look amazing!! I just printed the recipe to try. :)
I can't wait to try these out!
these look delicious, they're so cute! :-)
You know, for having a crappy camera like you said-- all your food pictures make my mouth water! I can't wait to try out your recipes. Thanks for venturing to my blog :)
Ohhh how sweet. I love the sparkliness through them, i would love eating these
I made these last weekend for a friend's birthday...they were so delicious!
I just finished baking these and... OMG!!! They're sooooooo good. Moist, yummy, delicate... I'm speechless!! \^o^/
If I hadn't made these for a house warming party tomorrow, I think I could eat the whole batch by myself (and I got 30!!).
They're so amazingly good that I'm not even ashamed for keeping a couple at home {U_U}
how many cupcakes can you get out of this recipe? i'm making them for a wedding shower of about 25 people. do you think i should double the recipe? thanks! love your blog! i just made the spinach artichoke dip last night, and it was like a food orgy in my mouth (those were the first words i could think of when i took my first bite)!
I ended up making two batches of these last weekend. They are soo good. DH ate like half of them. Definitely will make again. Thanks for sharing.
These were amazing! Thanks for posting it!
These cupcakes looks so delicious! I will try the recipe very soon. I love baking too and have been making a few cakes.
I am surprised she gave you the recipe, people are usually very misterious about their recipes.
I am excited to try this recipe- and I would like to try them tonight. I do not however have any strawberry liquor! Do you think the recipe would be as good without it?? And what is the best source to purchase liquors? Is the Booze store the only legal place to purchase this? Thank you for all of your yummy recipes that you share and for any info you could provide?
Made this for my daughter's 5th birthday as a two layer cake and it was awesome. The frosting is perfect for cup cakes and was a little soft for cake decorating, however it tasted delicious and the cake was completely consumed at the party.
Next time, I'm going to try it with 1/2 cake flour and 1/2 all purpose to see if produces a denser cake.
Great recipe - Thanks for posting it!
just made this recipe last night and it was SOOO incredibly DELISH! not really sure where you're from, but with all the craze about these expensive (and sooo L.A., bleh) cupcakes that everyone seems to love, this beats them hands down.
I just happened to stumble upon your website and i'm so glad i did :) Thanks for providing such great recipes
these look great! does anyone know how many cupcakes the recipe makes?
Wow. These were really delicious. I made them last night and brought them into the office today, and everyone absolutely loved them! I kept the frosting separate to let people frost them on their own, and everyone had a great time digging in. Thanks so much for the wonderful recipe!
I made these last night for my 4 year old's Valentine party (sans strawberry liquor...just seemed like a bad idea!) and they were fantastic! I doubled the recipie and got a couple over 3 dozen cupcakes. I brought some into the office and they were gone by 9:15!!
This recipe sounded so awesome, I decided to bake the cupcakes for our church service tomorrow. I normally bake goodies for church every Sunday, everything fresh and from scratch. A friend of mine who likes pink and strawberries has a birthday coming up, so I made these for her. The icing is to die for, although I substituted strawberry jam for the liquor. I should've only filled them halfway though, I hate the way mine almost always overflows. Your cupcakes look way better though. The pink on that icing is almost supernatural.
These were the BEST strawberry cupcakes I have ever had! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I made this recipe over the weekend for our daughter's birthday. They are so good! I left out the liquor(we didn't have that) and added chopped strawberries to the frosting instead. Wonderful!
