So Much Goodness: Strawberry, Vanilla, Chocolate, and Coconut

How could we possibly go wrong?  With such great flavors, you can be sure these cupcakes would leave you wanting nothing more...except maybe more cupcakes.

Vanilla Cupcakes with Strawberry Mousse
These vegan vanilla cupcakes are moist and heavenly.  The strawberry mousse, sweetened only slightly with fresh-squeezed fruit juice, is the perfect topping.  They are decadent but light, rich but not too sweet.

We may have made them in December, but they are screaming April showers and May flowers.  Late in the springtime, we use fresh strawberries and top them with slivers of local, organic berries.  They are so beautiful we can hardly bring ourselves to take that first bite.  (We said hardly.  They are even more delicious than they are beautiful.)



Chocolate Coconut
Mmmm, did someone say coconut? And chocolate?  These two treats paired together make the world a better place. We like it because the chocolate makes us feel warm and comfortable.  The coconut adds a little panache, and we like that combination.  Imagine if your favorite fancy dress were actually comfortable.  This is the culinary equivalent.

The vegan chocolate cupcake made with just a hint of coconut is complimented by the creamy coconut frosting.  Just the right amount of toasted coconut tops it off.  A perfect combination of decadence and class.

Now that your mouth is watering and you are dying to indulge, email us at thegreatergoodies@gmail.com, or check out our Facebook page: facebook.com/TheGreaterGoodies.  You can inquire about these and other delicious treats, place an order, or give us feedback.
