1. Strawberry Shortcake Cupcake >

When you think of classic dessert favorites, strawberry shortcake is almost always on the list. However, the trouble with traditional strawberry shortcake is—despite the fact that it has plenty of fresh berries—it contains an awful lot of sugar. Plus, it is rich with fat-filled ingredients like butter and heavy cream. Fortunately, with our diet-friendly version, you can indulge in the sweet taste of strawberry shortcake without any guilt.

These bakery-style cupcakes are stuffed with a creamy whipped filling that tastes indulgent but is much lighter than the classic heavy cream topping. Each cupcake has 130 calories and less than four grams of fat. They also contain three grams of fiber for a filling snack that fuels your day. Click here to try our Strawberry Shortcake Cupcake! >
