Gluten free lemon & raspberry cream cupcakes
By Torie Jayne @

Yesterday I showed you the Hello Kitty princess castle birthday cake I made for my niece Molly's birthday. I also bought a bright pink Hello Kitty cupcake stand and Hello Kitty cupcake wrappers for Molly. I filled them with gluten-free lemon & raspberry cream cupcakes decorated with chocolate Hello Kitty and bunny heads.
