Cone Method
I learned about the cone method from the truely inspirational blog Cupcake Bakeshop. It’s a great way to put any filling into your cupcake.
If you’ve got someone willing to help, I’ve found that the process goes much faster with a partner. I’ve convinced hubby to help out a couple times. I cut and he fills.
Step 1: After cupcakes have completely cooled, use a sharp knife to cut out a cone.
Step 2: Scoop small amount of filling into cupcake.
Step 3: Replace top onto cupcake. I usually break off the cone part of the top so that it lies flat on the cupcake.
Step 4: Frost cupcake as usual and enjoy the look on everyone’s face when they get a surprise when they bite into your cupcakes!

I don’t eat strawberries but Alex does so I am looking forward to all the great recipes you’ll be sharing with us this week!
Btw, I gave you a blog award ๐
This looks like the perfect little summer dessert ๐ I, too, am happy just popping strawberries in my mouth, but always welcome a more desserty type option. I love your little dessert cups, too!

I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY THESE, THE LOOK WONDERFUL!
I love love love strawberries and love your idea of doing a whole week of recipes featuring them. I must stop by the farmers market on Friday to pick some up!
I LOVE individually sized desserts! And strawberries! Looks amazing ๐
My husband goes Strawberry picking every year and my mom makes him Jam, I think I might have to make these for him this year too.
I hate to be negative, but this recipe was a little disappointing for me.
I loved! the cobbler topping. But the filling was way too sweet. It was like eating strawberry jam straight from the jar. And I even cut the sugar down to 1/3 cup and used about 3 cups of strawberries.
Thanks so much for sharing it though. I look forward to trying the cobbler topping with other fruit fillings.
alexandjess – sorry to hear you didn’t like the fruit filling in this recipe. I wasn’t using the ripest berries when I made it. Maybe that’s why it was too sweet for you? Bummer either way ๐
What a beautiful cobbler! The filling looks pretty and bright.
Wow, great job here. Awesome picture too! You should really consider submitting this to Recipe4Living’s Fall Cobbler Recipe Contest! It looks delicious!
