Well, these were an experiment. The cupcakes were vegan but the recipe for the frosting was not, and I wanted to make them vegan. I don't think I would again. The frosting has strawberry puree in it, and is delicious. The lemony cupcake isn't too lemony or overwhelming. It has coconut milk in it, but you can't really taste that.
This frosting didn't get stiff at all, didn't keep any sort of shape, and would not work with a piping bag. Bummer. Some other sort of frosting will have to be used. I think a lemon curd center would have been delicious, but there wasn't any lemon curd to be had in the park's grocery stores.
I definitely gravitate towards the citrus and fruit in these. I think they'd be a good counterpart to the double coconut cupcakes.
