Raspberry Lime Cupcake Recipe

April 9, 2015 by Susan Bewley 45 Comments

Raspberry Lime Recipe

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been amazed at all the amazing fruit deals lately at Kroger. Not just any fruit, berries. You can tell winter is officially over when fresh blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries are once again affordably priced. Lately, I have been making a lot of fun berry desserts, ranging from berried oatmeal in my slow cooker to cobblers. Not only that, but I’ve been making the most delightful cupcakes. I don’t know what it is, but spring is one of those times I like to bake to my heart’s content and make the house smell like wonderful baked treats. That being said, it sometimes isn’t good for my husband or my waistlines, but it seems like a great sacrifice in the name of making delicious goodies for us and our family, don’t you think?

Of course, I had to take advantage of these deals and try making a yummy cupcake recipe. While I found using jam for this one was a bit easier, the results were delightful.  These yummy Raspberry Lime Cupcakes are truly out of this world and are a wonderful mix of sweet flavors. The raspberry icing is really just the icing on the cake (no pun intended). Best of all, they are very easy to make, something that is a big deal to me since I hate dealing with complicated cake recipes. Just think how fun it would be to serve these to friends or at your next play date? Personally, I can’t wait to make these for the rest of my family during our next gathering. I can see these cupcakes being an instant hit!

I am so confident that I am sharing this awesome recipe with all of you first. We think you will love this delicious Raspberry Lime Cupcake Recipe.  If you try this recipe, make sure to tell us what you think in the comment below!

Note: Special thanks to my friends Krista from Adventures of Country Divas for helping me with this recipe and pictures!

    This does sound good, and I like the color contrast. I’m not as brave as you are cooking from scratch. Maybe I’ll get my husband to make these for me.I grow raspberries in my yard. I love them. It’s always a race each year seeing who gets to them first, me or the birds.Even with netting over top they still pick the berries.

      We have blueberries that grow each year. Our fight is the birds and the neighborhood kids who cut through our yard. 🙂
