15. Fresh Strawberry Cupcakes with Whipped Cream Frosting: People have actually told me this is their all time favorite cupcake. These strawberry cupcakes are made extra tender due to bits of fresh berries in the batter. The whipped cream frosting is a go-to frosting you’ll fall in love with, as it can be used on so many desserts.
