"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Directions:
In large bowl, beat pudding mix and whipping cream with wire whisk for 2 minutes. Let stand 3 minutes. Beat in ¼ cup Key lime juice and the food color; stir in powdered sugar until smooth. Cover and refrigerate. Heat oven to 375°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. Make cake batter as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Spoon about 1 rounded tablespoonful of batter into each muffin cup, using about half of the batter. (Muffin cups will be about 1/3 full). Refrigerate remaining batter. Bake 14 to 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from pan to cooling rack. Repeat with remaining baking cups and batter. Cool cupcakes completely, about 15 minutes. Remove cupcakes from baking cups. Swirl about 2 tsp. topping on top of each cupcake. Stir frosting in container 20 times. Gently stir in 1 tablespoon Key lime juice and the lime peel. Spoon topping into 1-quart resealable food-storage plastic bag. Cut ½-inch opening across bottom corner of bag. Squeeze 1 rounded teaspoonful frosting from bag onto topping. Garnish with fresh lime wedge, if desired. Store in refrigerator.
