Strawberry cupcakes are yummy any time of year, but especially in the summer when strawberries are at the peak of flavor. I’m always up for a good cupcake recipe (especially strawberry!), so when I can get one from a professional, I know it’s gonna be good! These cupcakes are out of this world good, so you should try them. Especially right now. When strawberries are fresh at the market. Yum!
