LIME CURD AND GINGER CUPCAKES

These cupcakes have their centre taken out and filled with lime curd(see chutney link for the recipe). I use a sharp knife, insert it on the side and cut around in a circle pointing the blade at an angle to the centre so that I remove a cone of sponge. I then fill the centre with lime curd or you could add cream cheese such as marscapone which you have creamed and added lime juice and grated lime rind to make a tangy filling for the cupcakes. Replace the cone onto the cupcakes.

These cupcakes have then been topped off with lime curd, marscapone cream cheese and fine slices of fresh lime.
