The Coastal Confidence has always been about embracing the charms and traditions of a New England lifestyle; specifically through New England travel guides, home decor, inspirational posts, and seasonal style.

For the past four years, I’ve only showcased topics, I feel I’m personally ‘skilled’ at. So while I enjoy ‘baking’, pumpkin spice muffins (from the box) and fudge brownies that I’ll have to throw away, after accidentally using olive oil instead of vegetable oil (oops); I just figured better leave the baking to the experts. 

Our crew has a large spectrum of topics we’d love to cover, that, to say nicely. we aren’t so ‘accomplished’ in. & I knew I had to search for blogging experts. to teach both you and I a thing or two.  

I made it our crew’s goal to collaborate with a baking blogger we admire and basically Instagram stalk on the daily; to showcase her favorite seasonal recipes to TCC readers!

I’m especially excited for this new recipe series, as I’m dying to sharpen my very rusty baking skills. 

Anyway, believe it or not, 4th of July is less than a week away! So my friend Jamie, from Treats and Trends, is sharing her patriotic party dessert with us all!

From the recipe to the decor, Jamie really knows how to add seasonal inspiration into her desserts. Her mission is to always make desserts as cute as they are delicious; and she nailed these 4th of July Funfetti Cupcakes, to a tee!

 Not to mention we both have a love for finding the cutest and most affordable, kitchen decor to really bring the experience together; because let’s face it the devils in the details! 

This weekend, I’m actually flying home to see my family for the 4th of July and already Amazon Primed all the items I’ll need to repeat this recipe. The cupcake part is always a go with me, but the frosting is always my downfall, so wish me luck! 

I’d love to hear if any of you are baking a special something for 4th of July, if so leave what you’re baking in the comments below! Besides cupcakes, I know my family will be chowing down on some strawberry shortcake, it’s the yummiest of traditions!
