Paradise and Pennant Candied Fruit

Cherry Limeade Kool Aid Cupcakes

Cherry Limeade Cupcakes are a sensory treat: the candied cherries lend vibrant color, chewy sweetness, and a juicy pop inside each bite, while the lime‑infused frosting ties it all together with a refreshing tang. They look party‑ready, taste sophisticated yet fun, and highlight the candied fruit in both taste and visual appeal—a dessert that’s as joyful to serve as it is to eat.
