SPRING FLING CUPCAKES
I like to lighten up my recipes in the spring after eating such heavy food over the holidays. My family looks forward to the cool freshness of pineapple and strawberries combined with fluffy Angel Food cake in this recipe. Great for baby and bridal showers, Easter and brunches. Very pretty and colorful on the dessert table.

- 3. Cool cupcakes in pans for 10 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.
- 4. Mix dry pudding mix and pineapple in medium bowl. Gently, fold in Cool Whip. Spread onto cupcakes and decorate with fresh strawberries.
THE MARKET'S SPRING FLING CAKE
The Market, located at 1445 Larimar Street, Denver, Colorado makes this fabulous cake. We first had the cake at a birthday party for our friend (Mary). It was so good that I had to search for the recipe, and found it in an old Rocky Mountain News article. The RMN no longer publishes a newspaper, so I'm saving the recipe here.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Grease and flour a 10 inch cake pan.
- Cake: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded zucchini, eggs, sugar, oil, sour cream, and vanilla.
- Combine the DRY ingredients in another bowl; then add to zucchini mixture.
- Batter will be rather wet and easy to pour. Pour batter into prepared cake pan and bake for 50-70 minutes.
- Cool on rack 10 minutes, then remove cake from pan. (Note: The cake can be made a day prior and refrigerated).
- Frosting: Whip cream cheese with butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until combined.
- In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff, then fold the whipped cream and 1/2 t vanilla into the frosting mixture.
- Assemble Cake: Cut cooled cake in half lengthwise (creating two layers). You can cut the cake into three layers, like they do at The Market.
- Spread frosting over the first layer, add a layer of fruit (repeat if you are making a three-layer cake).
- Put on the top layer and frost. The sides of the cake are NOT frosted.
- Arrange fruit in circles (or your preferred design) over entire top of the cake, slightly overlapping the fruit. Spread apricot glaze over fruit with a pastry brush.
Tips for Making Perfect Spring Fling Cupcakes:
- Use fresh ingredients: High-quality ingredients will result in the best-tasting cupcakes. Use fresh eggs, butter, and milk, and choose ripe fruit for the filling and frosting.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a light and airy cupcake. Cream the butter and sugar together for at least 2 minutes.
- Gradually add the eggs to the batter: Adding the eggs one at a time will help to prevent the batter from curdling. Beat the eggs into the batter until just combined.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough cupcakes. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the cupcake liners no more than 2/3 full: This will allow the cupcakes to rise properly without overflowing the liners.
- Bake the cupcakes at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time: The cupcakes should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them: This will prevent the frosting from melting.
- Use a variety of tips to decorate the cupcakes: You can use a star tip to create swirls, a round tip to create dots, or a leaf tip to create leaves. Get creative and have fun with it!
Conclusion:
Spring Fling Cupcakes are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. With fresh ingredients, careful baking, and creative frosting, you can create beautiful and delicious cupcakes that will impress your friends and family.
