make with the yummy and healthy Matcha powder. We’ll never fear because I have
created the most yummy cupcakes with it and they’re pretty too. You’ll really
impress your friends and family with these babies!

I love the little pineapple on top at the end! These sound great and look scrumptious! I am partial to cream cheese icing (see what I did there?) but this buttercream looks amazing! Have a happy Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteThat little pineapple toothpick is the cutest. I'm pretty sure I could eat the frosting and be plenty happy, but putting it on top of a cupcake, well that's jus the icing on the cake. HA (I fancy myself a comedian #lame) Thanks for the recipe friend. I still haven't worked up the nerve to order that matcha powder. I'm such a chicken!!!🐔 XOXO
ReplyDeleteOh man, matcha AND buttercream frosting!? These sound amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using this for cupcakes! they look so tasty! Keep this one for your cookbook :) Sierra Beautifully Candid

ReplyDeleteWow! These sound so delicious! I would never have thought to make cupcakes with matcha. It looks like a great combination.
ReplyDeleteI’m a sucker for anything that has buttercream frosting, and the fact that it’s a little healthy is definitely a double win in my book!
