These lovely little cupcakes called out to my spring-starved soul, lost in a sea of grey skies and 90% chance-of-showers. They sing of sun and tropical breezes, with their papaya and their lime and their coconut. Chockylit has the recipe; the cupcakes are made with coconut milk, with chopped papaya and shredded coconut stirred in before baking; and the icing is made of cream cheese, the usual butter and sugar, and flavored with fresh grated ginger, ground ginger and lime juice. You should also check out the whole photo essay on flickr.
