Lemon Fresh

This is a brand new recipe....Lemon Cupcakes! If you are a fan of lemon, then you will love these cupcakes.  They are sweet, but also have a slight lemonly tart flavour to them. To create the lemon flavour in the cake and the icing, I use grated lemon zest.  I also used a small amount of yellow food colouring to tint the icing a soft yellow.  Then to perfect them I used yellow sprinkles and little pearl white sugar candies.  You could also use little candy lemon wedges to decorate them, which would go along with the lemon theme.  I just got a little lazy and settled for sprinkles and sugar candies.  If you wanted to spice things up and add more flavour besides just lemon, I thought you could add blueberries.  You would then have a lemon blueberry cake, with a lemon icing!
