Island Breeze Cupcakes


I had the idea for these cupcakes a couple of days ago. When I was doing my apprenticeship in cooking I made a pineapple upside down cake with a coconut custard and it was lush, and it tasted exactly like Lilt. So I had a though...why not put it into a cupcake? Now obvioulsy I can't call it Lilt so I came up with the name Island Breeze. 
It is a tropical flavour cupcake with a piece of dried pineapple and dried mango in the centre, with a coconut buttercream on the top and sprinkled with desiccated coconut. 
It was a really simple cupcake to make and tasted amazing. I have also found my buttercream is holding alot better and I think my cupcakes are starting to look like professional cakes. Although this cupcake is for a desired taste as I have discovered not many people like coconut but if you like coconut then this cupcake is definitely for you!
Difficulty to make 5/10
Taste 10/10
Appearance 10/10
