We are having the most\u00a0beautiful Monday to Friday of sunshine and now my iPhone tells me we are going to have the most\u00a0gloomy and cloudy Saturday and Sunday… typical right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why can’t it be the other way around? Still, overcast weather makes for awesome food photography lighting so every cloud has a silver lining right? (No pun intended).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also… I really need to buy a new cake stand, don’t I? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am not sure how much longer I can get away with using this one with reindeer all over it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least the red matches the strawberries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of which, strawberries, with balsamic vinegar… it is ah-mazing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When reduced to a glaze, the balsamic vinegar loses that sharp tang it has, and takes on a deep, rich, sweet flavor, which when drizzled over fresh strawberries is so good!<\/p>\n\n\n

The base for this dessert is plain vanilla cupcakes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want the toppings to do all the talking here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cake is also the base for these lemon cupcakes<\/a>\u00a0and these chai cupcakes<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you find a recipe that works, you stick with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By changing a few proportions and flavors you can create all sorts of wonderful cakes and cupcakes that you know will come out perfect every time!<\/p>\n\n\n

I cannot wait for strawberry season<\/a> to begin this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It means that summer is officially here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is really nothing to compare to the fresh, local strawberries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are always the sweetest and the juiciest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are lucky enough to live somewhere where you can get all these fresh goodies all year round then I envy you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But hey, I do live in the land of cheese so I can’t really complain!<\/p>\n\n\n

These cupcakes are definitely best served fresh, the whipped cream should be nice and cold or stored in the fridge until just before serving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The balsamic glaze can be stored in a squeezy bottle or container in the fridge until you are ready to use it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever is not used on the cake would be perfect for topping a nice summer salad! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So until the real sun arrives, whip up a batch of these cupcakes and\u00a0enjoy with some friends!<\/p>\n\n\n
