I got another big box of mangoes last week, as the season is ending soon and for 10 big mangoes, guess the rate??? It was 3.99$ . Did not want loose this offer 😛 because here it is usually 1$ per mango. Buying it isn’t a big deal, but using it is what a big deal 😛 And each mango yields one full cup of pulp. So I thought let me do a cupcake, as I have tried muffins and never a cup cake.

Wanted to make it totally a vegan but did not have the ingredients for frosting in vegan. So I used the butter frosting and never have I thought I would do this anytime 🙂 I don’t have any electric mixer , proper piping aids, somehow I managed it with hand mixer and ziplock bag 🙂 It was a little hectic to beat the frosting but I felt worth doing it and I enjoyed it 🙂

For Frosting:

Now add the mango pulp and keep mixing. It got curdled at the start and keep stirring and one point it combine so beautifully and I felt so happy 🙂

Once it is done, take the piping aid and put it in a plastic bag ( I just used a ziploc bag and cut its end) and squeeze in the frosting.

For vegan friends, use vegan butter instead of normal butter and do the frosting.
