Blueberries are in season and I bought some from our farmers' market.  They are so fresh, plumb, juicy and tasty. With lots of antioxidants, blueberries have to be one tasty health food. Adding some blueberries to my standard butter cake recipe has turned my ordinary cupcakes into an extra special treat. I must say the blueberry cupcakes looked mouth-watering.  They are moist and absolutely delicious.  Another pretty quick and easy recipe I reckon.
