I wanted REAL strawberry frosting for my Real Strawberry Cupcakes and could not find an acceptable recipe. I wanted an intense strawberry taste without using an extract or gelatin. I came up with this recipe using a strawberry puree reduction that is truly the strawberry-est. If you love strawberries, you'll LOVE THIS!!!

[email protected]This frosting is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. It's not too heavy, so it doesn't weigh down the cake. I used it on a white cake, and it was a hit! My family loved it, and it's my new go-to frosting recipe.
