I used butter instead of margarine, and have used about 1 1/2 extra cups of sugar, and I still can't quite get a nice soft peak on it - it keeps flopping over like pudding! I also used blueberry fruit spread instead of jam, not sure if it makes a difference. Any ideas for what I went wrong?

I made a blueberry, lemon, almond cake this past summer and it was so good I still think about it. These cupcakes look gorgeous and i love the idea of mixing the jam in with the buttercream. Also know what you mean about the Meyer Lemons. I love them sometimes, but actually think they're better in savory recipes (delicious with pasta) than in sweet ones because the flavor is a bit odd. I almost prefer replacing oranges with them than lemons. I do love the sound of that margarita recipe... I love the combination of blueberries and lemon.
