Chocolate raspberry swirl cupcakes

I´m still in chocolate raspberry mood so here I present you a chocoholic bomb – chocolate raspberry swirl cupcakes. Raspberries are finally ripe so I can bake this amazing combination. Not only taste, but also the visual side of these cupcakes is great, I love this two-colored swirl effect of icing. It looks wonderful, isn´t it? Although I ´m against buttercream, I couldn´t have avoided it here, because raspberries and mascarpone wouldn´t be stiff enough. But there is really a minimum of buttercream, mascarpone is main ingredient and you almost wouln´t guess that there is butter in icing. It says the person who almost always recognizes butter in icing. Melted chocolate and fresh raspberries are not only in icing, but also in batter so it´s really delicious. No “chocolate” batter, which hardly ever saw chocolate and it would include only cocoa or coffee. Cupcakes are also soo fluffy and moist thanks to my favorite batter ingredient, buttermilk. If you love chocolate raspberries combination as much as I do, you will love these cupcakes.

      Dobrý deň, ďakujem, som rada, že sa páčia 🙂 Vrecká používam jednorázové, ale konkrétne v tomto recepte som jednorázové vrecká dala ešte do silikónového vrecka, ktorý je rozdelený na 2 časti, aby som dosiahla dvojfarebný efekt. Inak bežne jednorázové. A čo sa týka špičiek, tak tie mením, kúpila som si sadu viacerých kovových a tie obmieňam podľa potreby. Konkrétne v tomto prípade som použila špičku, ktorá sa podobá na Wilton 8B (pravé Wilton špičky nemám).
