Bazinga? For a couple of reasons. One because I just love that word from Sheldon Cooper on Big Bang Theory. Second because of the Raspberry Zinger tea which I used within the cupcake batter.

Can I use regular Duncan Hines frosting with the flavor mix?

I'm sure you can, but I'm thinking the results will not be the same. I myself find this icing to be an icing quite enjoy; which says a lot since I'm a picky pants. I'd ask Duncan Hines on Facebook what the biggest difference would be.

Thank you so much! They do look yummy, and they were... but they are raspberries =) Made them again for work and they absolutely loved the cake too. Infusing tea for flavor is a good thing.

Using the tea is a great idea. The m&m's in the raspberries are a perfect touch!

Thank you, though Sheldon Cooper probably would take all the credit from me, right? LOL
