perfect spring cupcakes


i used giada's recipe "todd's orange and raspberry cake" to make these yummy cupcakes.
i did use my basic cream cheese icing recipe instead of her's because i needed a little bit thicker icing for piping.
(1 stick butter, 1 package cream cheese, 1 pound or 4 cups confectioners sugar)
stir in the 1/4 cup raspberry jam to make the icing pink!
