I love cupcakes! I have so many recipes on my blog. So I love to find fun and unique recipes to share with you.

Today’s recipe would be perfect for Disney Princess Party – especially if it was a Princess Aurora party from Sleeping Beauty.

This cupcake is made with a strawberry gelatin mix to give you a yummy raspberry flavor. Plus you will love the addition of white chocolate in the buttercream icing!

You can find the crowns and sprinkles at Amazon or you can customize them with your favorite princess decorations. Click here for more things you could purchase to have a Princess Aurora birthday party!

You will make the cake and icing from scratch – and even make your own buttermilk to make the cake extra moist!

In a small bowl, add the milk and vinegar. Mix well and set aside.

In a separate bowl, add butter and mix on low for 1 minute or until creamy.

Add in the sugar and mix for 30 seconds to one minute, or until light and fluffy.

Slowly add in the egg whites and vanilla and mix for an added 30 seconds.

Whisk gelatin mix into the dry ingredients.

Add the milk mixture into the wet ingredients. Slowly add the wet mixture into the dry mixture.

Buttercream icing instructions:

Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring after each. Mix into the butter mixture until smooth.

Slowly mix in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, alternating 1 tablespoon of cream until creamy, light, and fluffy and it forms stiff peaks.
