neapolitan mini cuppies, my version

it was a lazy Saturday morning when i thought about chocolate-covered hi-hat cupcakes, "i want to make it!", so i got up from my too comfort bed and went to the kitch. "okay, what frosting?" that was what i think while I'm standing in front of my refrigerator and my eyes patrolled in it. i only needed a minute of frosting clueless until my eyes laid on a bowl of waiting-to-be-rotten strawberries. "ah-ha! strawberry frosting, good, it'll make a chocolate-covered strawberry alike!!" i literally screamed in my head.
then what cake? chocolate cake? naah! too much chocolate wont do any good. vanilla cake? ordinary vanilla cake? booooriiing (i could hear homer saying that out loud) strawberry cake? so it would match the frosting? noooo, I've made that strawberry cake but it ended up bad, okay it tasted good, but was too dense and wet?! NO! "oh please, this is why i bought those baking books in the first place, to find ideas!" i got furious.
so i went to my bookshelf, browse and find a recipe called 'white mud cake' or white chocolate cake! purrfect!!
vanilla, strawberry and chocolate!! NEAPOLITAN ice cream!

so here's the step-by-step pictures of my version of Neapolitan cupcakes, enjoy!
