Vanilla Lavender Cupcakes Filled with Lemon Buttercream Frosting

Vanilla Lavender Cupcakes Filled with Lemon Buttercream Frosting

These are some of my favorite cupcakes. They are hard to resist, you’ll want to eat them all! I love making Vanilla Lavender Cupcakes Filled with Lemon Buttercream Frosting.

When I was a little girl living in California, I was obsessed with lemon…the color. I had a yellow shirt I would never get out of. Also I had a nice, yellow blanket. I loved lemons, I loved them because of their color.

One day I told my mom I wanted a lemon. She was like you do?? Okay! She said if I want one I have to eat the whole thing. Who here can eat a whole lemon? Not me!!

There I was on the kitchen floor, my mom cut open a lemon and handed it off to me. Took my first bite and almost died!! I was rolling around on that floor for a couple hours, slowly trying to finish my lemon. Finally she let me throw it away. I was never going to ask for a lemon again!! These lovely cupcakes are surrounded by some of my favorite farmhouse decor, which is in my shop here.

I now love lemons, just not whole ones… to eat! Let me know how your cupcakes turn out. Follow me on Insta to see the daily life at Hallstrom Home.

Either you can make your lemon filling or a quick, easy way is to buy lemon pie filling. I do that most of the time, it is quick and can get the job done. You guys will have to check out my fave vanilla bean paste. Don’t go for extract anymore! This is the absolute best!! Also here are my fave kitchen products that I use.

    These sound wonderful! I’m visiting my daughter next week, and we will be making these- lavender is one of her favorites, and she and I usually make lemon bars together.
    This will be perfect. Thank you!

    I sorry I told you to eat the whole lemon! I’m happy to hear that you love them…I enjoy a pitcher of lemon or lime water. I have a pitcher of lime water in the fridge right now. Sure would be good with one of those cupcakes!
