To make buttercream bursting with flavor and tinged a natural light pink, I simply swapped the milk I would normally use in my buttercream for fresh strawberry puree. You can add a drop or two of food coloring if you'd like an even bolder pink color, but I personally like seeing the darker flecks of strawberry in the light pink frosting. Garnish with strawberries, cut into halves, quarters, or left whole, depending on the size. They are incredibly soft and fluffy, and full of fresh fruit flavor. I can't believe it's the middle of May already.
