Its the 4th of July weekend and I want to add some blue to my food. I found this recipe and thought what a fun way to add color into the menu. I am getting this baking underway. I will take the advice of adding cream cheese into the frosting. YUMMY!!!! Will add a comment at the end of my event.

I tried the recipe today. I doubled the recipe because I needed a double batch. When I saw the frosting recipe, I thought it might be to sweet, so I too added cream cheese with the butter. That made the base a little thicker once I added the powder sugar and puree all was perfect. They cupcakes were AWESOME!

I bake a different cupcake every weekend and these seem to be everyone’s favorite thus far.

I have left over puree so I am thinking of making a lemon cupcake with blueberry filling and lemon frosting.

Thanks for the awesome recipe!

Nathalie – I’m sorry you weren’t happy with the frosting. I really like the idea of adding cream cheese!

I just made these. Now, I haven’t frosted them yet, but the frosting is very runny. I added the liquid a little bit at a time like you said, and still. It turned out pretty bad, I had to make a lot of adjustments, such as more powdered sugar, butter, and I added cream cheese. The original frosting was just way too sugary and not blueberry tasting enough. It’s fine now. I have the frosting sitting in the freezer so it wont be as runny when I try to frost it. I haven’t tried the cake yet, but I’ll let you know how it comes out!

Marjorie – I’ve never tried it in a cake pan but I’m guessing it would work just fine… not sure about the baking time though. Let me know how it goes!

I can’t wait to make this recipe for my blueberry loving 1 yr old’s birthday!! Will I need to change anything if I put this into a shaped cake pan instead of making cupcakes? I would like to use a 1 shaped pan for baking. Thanks for your reply.

Sondra – I’m sorry the cupcakes didn’t work out. For the frosting, it definitely helps to add the liquid just a little bit at a time so it doesn’t get to runny.

I have to try these again. They took longer than 20-25 to bake and the icing was much darker and runny.

The cupcakes tasted very good and moist. I loved them!For some reason my frosting was runny and way to sweet?? What can i do to make it thicker, like the cupcakes in the picture?
