Fanny, these little gems look so delicious! The coconut topping look so fresh. Can i ask how you grated them please? I would like to buy a fresh coconut! Oh, btw, i have posted my contribution to SHF. Pandan cupcake with nutella frosting..! ;)

Haha Mae, you should have seen me in the kitchen with my old grater in one hand and a coconu chunk in the other. The resulting grated coconut was flying everywhere. Messy, but worth it!

Haha! I love your “how to open coconuts when you’re a girl” tip. It’s good to know, because the way I used to do it (chucking the coconut as hard as I could at a sharp rock in my mom’s garden) only works when I’m somewhere with a garden and sharp rocks.

What a yummy looking cupcake. I always prefer a light crumb to a dense, chewy ones. And the coconut extract sounds divine!!

You saying you made your own extract makes me feel as dumb as the people who are shocked that I can make my own marshmallows. I know it has to be made but I just thought the extract fairy did it.

Fanny, your cupcakes look beautiful! And I love the idea of home-made coconut extract.

I can’t believe you made your own extract! You are my hero! And love the tip on how to get into a coconut. I’ve never attempted it after watching a friend ram a butter knife into her hand trying to get one open!

I am unfortunately not a fan of coconut but these look so pretty that I wish I was! I don't need any extra encouragement to take part in this sugar high Friday, I've already been thinking up cupcake/icing combinations to try so hopefully I'll have something to share soon.

Great. can't wait to see what you'll make!
