Just last week I had the chance to create something wonderful.
The Spice and Tea Exchange sent me two packs (1 ounce each) of their specialty Tropical Cocoa Mix with the challenge to bake something.
I was intrigued. Tropical cocoa powder? What a lovely idea.
I gave it a whiff. It smells like vanilla and coconut, but tastes like paradise. I couldn’t wait to get to the kitchen!
After a bit of brainstorming I came up with these Tropical Cocoa Cupcakes with Coconut Swiss Meringue Buttercream.
Get the recipe over at The Spice and Tea Exchange blog!
And don’t forget to get some of your very own tropical cocoa powder today!

Sounds amazing and that cupcake looks delicious.
What the heck is tropical cocoa? Something else we don’t have here.
(obviously)
I’ll have to go see if they ship internationally.
Wow, that cocoa mix sounds amazing! I am the biggest coconut and chocolate fan, so this would be an absolute winning recipe for me
