I wanted to create a dessert recipe with the Blackberry syrup
I bought from the Middle Eastern store for a while; it is rich
concentrated syrup that is used to make cold icy drink for these hot
summer nights.

However, the first time I made these cupcakes the recipe gave me 9 cupcakes
and I was like what the heck? Where are the rest of the cupcakes?

Do not take me wrong, they were delicious but I had to have my 12 cupcakes, therefore, I had to re work the recipe until I got my 12 cupcakes.

The hint of the blackberry along with the coconuts gives it
this delicious light and airy flavor.

.1 1/2 cup sugar substitutes
