125g butter, softened
225g golden caster sugar
1 Finely grated zest of lemon
4 medium Waitrose British Blacktail Free Range Eggs
225g self-raising flour
160ml essential Waitrose Coconut Cream, stirred  until smooth
100g soft cheese
2 tbsp icing sugar,  plus extra for dusting
2 tbsp lemon curd
1 tsp Cooks’ Ingredients Rose Petals

Preheat the oven to 190ºC, gas mark 5. Line a 12-hole muffin tin  with paper cases.
Place the butter, sugar, lemon zest, eggs, flour and 100ml of the coconut cream in a large bowl and beat with an electric hand  whisk until pale and fluffy.
Meanwhile, mix together the remaining coconut cream, soft cheese and icing sugar.
Without removing or cutting through the paper cases, cut each cake vertically through the middle then spoon in the soft cheese mixture followed by the lemon curd. Sprinkle over the rose petals and dust each cupcake with a pinch of icing sugar.

Cook’s tip

Try swapping the rose petals used to top these cupcakes for other delicate, fragrant ingredients such as dried lavender, desiccated coconut or poppy seeds.
