    Yummy! Thanks for sharing this with us at the Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop 🙂 I just made some Tropical Cupcakes (https://www.bakesandblunders.com/tropical-cupcakes-from-a-box/) and the coconut buttercream had me falling in love. This recipe uses coconut cream for the flavor and I think I’m now obsessed. Creamy coconut frosting tastes like heaven! I’m definitely pinning this recipe 🙂
