A fresh, juicy peach always makes me think of summer. In Chile, where I grew up, nectarines are a staple in the warmer months.

Peaches are rich in vitamin C and fiber, so they are a healthy fruit.

Cupcakes might not be as healthy but they are so perfect for any summer party. When you add peaches to a traditional cupcake recipe, you won’t believe how delicious your treats will come out. Plus, they look adorable.
