Hi friends! This month I’ll be sharing a few of my cake creations on the Better Homes and Gardens blog – starting with these tea-time inspired cupcakes! They’re so easy to make, and perfect for a Mother’s Day dessert.
Lavender and Earl Grey flavors have a natural affinity for each other, but you can use any tea you fancy. To get all the details (including how I made tea bag tags into cupcake toppers) click here!
Those are really beautiful. In love!
Those cupcakes are looking so cute!
A deightful flavor combination. Wonderful cupcakes.
Cheers,
Rosa
I love tea, but in cupcakes? Amazing! Wonderful idea. Saludos desde Mexico!
Gorgeous cupcakes, Heather!
You might want to check your recipe post: under 'Honey Frosting' it repeats the ingredient list for the cupcakes.
I'm allergic to honey (as I'm sure others are). A good substitute for honey is Lyle's Golden Syrup; it's liquid cane sugar with a lovely flavour & it's going to work really well with this recipe.
Thank you Naomi, this is Better Homes and Garden's original recipe that I put my spin on, so I'll let their editorial team know that the frosting recipe is missing.
Mmm. Looks yummy.

looks delicious!
btw, the honey frosting recipe isn't showing, it is the same recipe as the cupcakes. unless there is another link?
Just so pretty, Heather. I love the honey in the center and the clever repurposing of the tea tags!
Will you be able to notify us when BHG has the recipe corrected? I don't normally get on their site unless you have a recipe posted there.
Everything you do is always so beautiful. I don't always comment but I am always impressed. You are very talented and creative !!
How sweet! Love these and just love the tea bag toppers!
This combination sounds wonderful!
I submitted the edit to BHG, and the note has been passed forward but I'm not sure how long it will take to get fixed. Here are the frosting ingredients. The instructions are correct, so refer to them in the recipe.
Frosting ingredients:
5 oz. mascarpone or cream cheese
3 tbsp. butter
1/4 cup honey
3 cups powdered sugar
Thanks everyone for your patience. xx-Kisses!
Oh these cupcakes look just perfect!
I love the idea of making cupcakes with earl grey tea,…. mainly because the taste reminds me of warm fruit loops ceral
THANK YOU for the frosting ingredients!!! I just made the cakes last night and the shopping trip for the frosting was this morning. I had a frosting panic attack!! BTW the cakes are so yummy!
I want to use this recipe for an 8in cake. What adjustments will I have to make?
