Recipe Introduction
This is just a cake mix fix up that I came up with for Mother's Day 2008. I don't yet have a go-to scratch white cake recipe - I'll have to work on that! But this is very good and the buttercream is so delicious and luxurious that it covers a lot of sins!
List of Ingredients
White cake mix
Coconut flavoring
1 jar of lemon curd
1 batch of CakeLove Italian Meringue Buttercream
Shredded coconut
Optional: Yellow decorating sugar and candy pearls
Recipe

Make the buttercream, adding 2-3 t. coconut flavoring, to taste. Frost cupcakes and decorate with pearls, sugar and coconut.
Makes 24 cupcakes.
