Mango Strawberry Sunset Cupcakes

Delightful cupcakes with a tropical twist, featuring mango and strawberry flavors, perfect for any occasion.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup Mango puree, fresh or canned
  • 2 tbsp Mango puree
  • 2 tbsp Strawberry puree
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Strawberry jam
  • 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 3 cups Powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups Butter, unsalted
  • 2 tbsp Heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla, and the mango puree, and mix until well incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, mixing just until combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.
  7. For the buttercream, beat the unsalted butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing well. Add the heavy cream and beat until fluffy, then divide the buttercream into three bowls.
  8. In one bowl, mix in the remaining mango puree, in the second bowl, mix in the strawberry puree, and leave the third plain. Use piping bags to layer the colors in a swirl effect on top of each cupcake.
  9. Top each cupcake with a dollop of strawberry jam and fresh fruit as garnish. Enjoy!

Notes

Ensure butter is at room temperature for easier mixing. Avoid overmixing to keep cupcakes fluffy. Use quality purees and jam for the best flavor.
