Happy Valentines Day everyone!! I hope your day is filled with love, and most importantly, sweets!

Frosting tip: If someone accidentally put your butter in the fridge and you’re only option to soften it up is to melt it on the stove, don’t panic! This is what you do… Melt the butter and prepare the frosting as normal. You’ll notice that it has a very runny texture and is completely impossible to decorate with. Place the bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes. When you take it out, beat the frosting to soften it up. Everything will now be nicely combined and easy to work with! This is exactly what happened to me the other day when I went to make these. I was in a slight panic until I figured this idea was worth a shot. The freezer is a life saver!

If you’re going to put chocolate covered strawberries on your cupcakes, make sure you’re going to serve them that day. By the next day you’ll have strawberry juice running down your cupcake. I haven’t found a trick yet to keep strawberries from doing this so if you have one please let me know!
