The cupcakes were the best I have ever tasted! I do wish I would have read the reviews first because I too had problems with the icing - I thought it was just me & I had done something wrong. My entire family said they were delicious enough - without ANY icing! I will definitely make again - and tweak that icing a bit.

I made these for our Easter family gathering and got rave reviews! They were super moist, flavorful and delicious! I had no problem at all with the glaze, it came together very easily. All I can guess why people are having issues is that their butter is not at room temperature. It really needs to be or I can see why it wouldn't blend well. I did run into a problem with the strawberries as I was unaware that there were such thing as frozen strawberries in syrup as opposed to just regular frozen strawberries. Knew I needed the syrup, so I just made my own by combining 1 c. water and 1 c. sugar on the stove. When sugar was dissolved, I added about 2 c. thawed strawberries and let simmer for about 10 minutes. Could have made due with about half of that mixture though. The only reason I gave this 4 stars rather than five was because even though the cupcake was wonderful, there was little difference IMO than a strawberry box cake mix, yet much more ingredients, time and effort.

These cupcakes are great!!! Very moist and tasty. I use my own buttercream recipe and add the strawberries to it. It's great!

The cupcakes were easy and tasted good but my icing was horrible. Trying to heat it as one reviewer suggested, hope it works. Next time will probably use a buttercream or cream cheese base.

If your glaze does not turn out, here is the fix. Throw it all in a pan and heat slowly while stirring. After a few minutes it should all come together and look like a beautiful red shiny glaze :

The cupcakes are wonderful! Light and not too sweet. The icing/glaze is a disaster. Maybe if the strawberry "juice" was drained, the butter & strawberries creamed first & then sugar added with a mixer - not a blender... Will make again & use cream cheese or buttercream icing.

This is a great dessert. I made a cake and it was beautiful. My only complaint is that my icicng was more of a pink frosting than a red glaze, but overall it was good.
