Vanilla Cupcakes with Espresso Whipped Cream and Buttercream Frosting

DSC_4285I didn’t make enough buttercream frosting, so some of them were topped with the espresso whipped cream

What I think:
Lately, I loved making cupcakes with fillings, and I had excess espresso whipped cream from the pancaked I made a few days earlier so I decided to try using that as a filling for a simple lemon-vanilla cupcake recipe. At first I thought the espresso flavor might not go well with the lemon, but they turned out alright. As concord grapes were in season, I decided to use that for the topping instead of blueberries. The only downside is that concord grapes have seeds in them, which makes eating them inconvenient compared to blueberries.
