Description

This sweet raspberry cupcake filling is easy to make using only 5 ingredients in under 20 minutes. It’s a perfect filling for white or chocolate cupcakes!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups frozen raspberries, partially thawed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 tbsp water
  • 3 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions

Notes

  • Strain out the seeds. If you want a smooth filling without any seeds, use a fine mesh sieve to strain out the raspberry seeds. Do this after heating the filling but before it has fully cooled. Press the filling through the sieve well, making sure not to leave too much filling behind.
  • Storage: Store leftover filling in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 to 2 weeks. If needed, microwave for 5 to 10 seconds to slightly loosen up the filling before using it. Once cupcakes have been filled, store them in the fridge.
  • Adjust the thickness. If the filling is too thick, add a small amount of water (about 1 teaspoon at a time) to thin it out. Do this while heating the filling over low heat. If the filling is too thin, add an extra 1 to 3 teaspoons of the 1:1 cornstarch to water mixture.
