Cupcakes or Pies?

Valerie made these cute cupcakes that look like wee little berry pies!

The inspiration came from "What's New Cupcake?" by Karen Tack & Alan Richardson.  Trying to keep with the berry pie theme, she used strawberry cake mix.  They would have been equally awesome with any flavor cake mix however.  The "berries" are red and purple M&M's and the frosting was mixed with a little cocoa power and the tiniest bit of yellow food coloring. So cute!
