Coconut Lime Verbena

1 Aug

Coconut Lime Verbena

A coconut lime cake made with coconut milk lime zest and lime juice topped with an almond cream cheese frosting and rolled in coconut flakes and almond slivers.

Filled:              no

Overall: the first words out of my mouth when I ate this cupcake were…..oh my!  the lime flavor just pops in your mouth, and then it’s “cooled” down by the sweet almond frosting

Cupcake: super moist cake with a nice tartness to it from the lime with an underlying touch of sweetness from the coconut milk, but it doesn’t add a strong coconut flavor to it

Frosting: sweet with a bit of crunch to it.  the almond flavoring in the frosting is enhanced by a deeper nuttiness from the almond slivers, providing you with two separate nutty flavors

*also available in gluten free
