Cone Method
I learned about the cone method from the truely inspirational blog Cupcake Bakeshop. It’s a great way to put any filling into your cupcake.
If you’ve got someone willing to help, I’ve found that the process goes much faster with a partner. I’ve convinced hubby to help out a couple times. I cut and he fills.
Step 1: After cupcakes have completely cooled, use a sharp knife to cut out a cone.
Step 2: Scoop small amount of filling into cupcake.
Step 3: Replace top onto cupcake. I usually break off the cone part of the top so that it lies flat on the cupcake.
Step 4: Frost cupcake as usual and enjoy the look on everyone’s face when they get a surprise when they bite into your cupcakes!

These look great as mini-cupcakes! I am so glad everyone liked them, and I like what you did to intensify the coconut flavor. Nicely done! 🙂
What a delicious flavor for cupcakes… and thank you for submitting it to this month’s Tasty Tools!
These look delicious! And thanks for the note about the coconut cream too!
What a great summery cupcake!
Those sound good and look even better! Love the lime zest you can see in the frosting!
That would have been cute to see the KA buckled in!

They’re so darn cute!
Thanks everyone! They were definitely a hit at the party
Yummers, I just made pina colada cupcakes, but these look amazing and I will try them someday. I have never gotten the stand alone foil cups to work for me.
