Steps:
- To make the cupcakes, preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C) and prepare a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light in color and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the sour cream, vanilla extract and lemon zest and mix until well combined.
- Add the egg whites in two batches, mixing until well combined after each. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to be sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Combine the dry ingredients in another bowl, then combine milk, water and lemon juice in a measuring cup.
- Add half of the dry ingredients to the batter and mix until well combined.
- Add the milk mixture and mix until well combined.
- Add remaining dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to be sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Fill cupcake liners about ¾ full. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs.
- Remove cupcakes from oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes, then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
- While the cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting. Beat the butter and shortening together until smooth.
- Add about half of the powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
- Add about 2 tablespoons of water or milk and the extracts and mix until smooth.
- Add the remaining powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Add additional water or milk, if needed.
- Add violet icing color to the frosting until it reaches the desired shade of purple.
- Pipe the frosting on top of the cupcakes using a closed star piping tip like this one. Top the cupcakes with a sprinkle of lavender and half a slice of lemon.

LEMON LAVENDER CUPCAKES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the lavender sugar: Put the lavender in a food processor or blender on high speed; process until finely ground. Remove 1 tablespoon of the lavender and set aside. Add the palm sugar to the remaining lavender and process to a very fine powder. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
- For the cupcakes: In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, honey and 6 tablespoons of the lavender sugar. Add in the eggs and lemon oil and mix until smooth.
- In a bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda, sea salt and the 1 tablespoon reserved ground lavender. With the mixer on low speed, slowly incorporate half of the flour mixture. Next mix in the lemon juice. (The mixture may look curdled but it is not.) Mix in the remaining flour mixture and then the milk and lemon zest. Continue mixing until the batter is totally smooth.
- Double line 1 1/2 standard, nonstick cupcake tins with liners. Fill the liners with a heaping 1/4 cup of the batter. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcakes comes out clean, 16 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool until easy to handle. While still slightly warm, dip the tops of the cupcakes in another 6 tablespoons lavender sugar. Place on baking sheet and let cool completely.
- For the lemon frosting: Melt the white chocolate over a double-boiler. Allow to cool slightly but don't let the chocolate set.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, whip together the cream cheese, butter, lemon oil and sea salt. Slowly add in the melted white chocolate and mix until smooth. Spoon the frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and refrigerate until set.
- Pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes and garnish with the edible flowers.
LEMON-LAVENDER CUPCAKES
Delicious lemon cupcakes with a hint of lavender and creamy lemon frosting. These are not your Mama's cupcakes. Updated with a light, moist texture and just an 'ever-so-subtle' Provencal taste. My husband did not know there was lavender in them. He loved my 'secret' ingredient. Try to eat just one... I dare you!
