In-season berries are <strong>delightfully sweet and juicy<\/strong>, so it\u2019s the time to take advantage (and I do here\u2014<strong>fresh strawberries enhance the cupcake center and embellish the top<\/strong>!)

I especially love that these cupcakes are paired with mascarpone whipped cream. The <strong>mascarpone cream is just sweet enough<\/strong>, and not cloying like some cupcake frostings. I will warn you not to over-mix the whipped cream and the mascarpone. Just mix it in to combine, and then stop. Due to the high fat content of the cream and the mascarpone, it has a tendency to separate, and once that happens, it\u2019s game over.

In 1600s England, \u201cshort\u201d referred to baked goods made with a lot of shortening (like butter), which made them crumbly and tender. The strawberries didn\u2019t come into play until the mid-1800s, when the growth of U.S. berry farms encouraged new recipes featuring strawberries.

id=\"protips\">Gemma\u2019s Pro Chef Tips<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fresh or frozen:<\/strong> You can use fresh or frozen strawberries to make the compote.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cook carefully:<\/strong> When cooking the strawberries, be sure to stir frequently and use low heat so the berries don\u2019t burn.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whipping tip:<\/strong> When whipping the mascarpone whipped cream, add in the mascarpone when the cream reaches soft peaks. If you add it too soon the cream can split.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Storage:<\/strong> Mascarpone cheese stabilizes the whipped cream so you can pipe the cupcakes and they should still be good for up to two days if kept in an airtight container.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flavor options:<\/strong> You can make the compote using a different berry in the same amount.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For Chocolate Fans:<\/strong> Make Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes by making our Chocolate Cupcakes and topping them with either Chocolate Whipped Cream or mascarpone whipped cream.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"ahead\">Make-Ahead and Storage Instructions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Make-ahead tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You can make the cupcakes ahead of time and store the unfrosted cupcakes at room temperature for <strong>up to three days. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>For more extended storage, wrap cupcakes well or put in a freezer-safe container and freeze for <strong>up to three weeks<\/strong>.\n<ul>\n<li>Let defrost at <strong>room temperature<\/strong> before filling and frosting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>You can make the mascarpone frosting, place it in an airtight container, and store it in the fridge for <strong>up to two days<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How to store leftovers:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Place cupcakes in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for<strong> up to two days<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-62574 size-full\" title=\"Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes17\" alt=\"Close-up shot at strawberry shortcake cupcakes shows the smooth frosting on top with fresh strawberry slices. \" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/strawberry-shortcake-cupcakes\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-scaled.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-scaled.jpg 1707w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/www.biggerbolderbaking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Strawberry-Shortcake-Cupcakes17-267x400.jpg 267w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3>How can I easily fill the cupcake liner?<\/h3>\n<p>Filling cupcake liners easily and neatly can be tricky.
