    fantastic recipe! The candied orange peel is a bit tricky but other than that well worth the time. Also I agree about the almond paste- work that first with sugar then add cream otherwise it doesnt work.

    I just tried these cupcakes and they are very yummy - its definitely worth the time to if you want something special. The only problem I had with the recipe was that the almond paste and the cream are almost impossible to incorporate together if you just put all the ingredients in a mixer like it says. I had to throw it out and start over by first incorporating the almond paste with the sugar, then SLOWLY drizzling in the cream until it came together. Then you can switch to the whisk attachment and beat the cream. Also, the orange flavor is really strong, MUCH stronger that a cannoli would ever have, to the point that my husband thought they were good, but didn't recognize it as mimicking a cannoli. So if you want a more authentic cannoli taste, I would cut the zest and candied orange peel in half next time.

    These were fantastic....I made 24 and gave away 22 of them to family, friends,neighbors and co-workers. I did not get one negative response back!! Com'on some were family and even they were shocked at how good they were. Sometimes with alot of ingredients people shy away and don't want to like it but that's impossible these are really that good. I agree the candied orange might as well be made at home but to be honest these are so full of flavor that the roasted almonds make a great topper. Remember to have the almond paste soft because you are whipping it into the heavy cream and you only have a small window of time to mix the two.

    Delicious cupcakes. I was looking for something different in a cupcake, and I found it. It was pretty time consuming....had to candy my own orange peels, couldn't find those pre-made, and I wish I had chopped my chocolate and peels a little finer, other than that it was pretty yummy!
