2 reasons for my 2nd trial on the cupcakes decor:
To produce a tastier buttercream.
Instead of using only butter, I add 30% creamwell. Also use lesser icing (slowly add into the batter a little, at a time).
Recipe: cream well, butter, icing sugar, 2T milk, and few drops vanilla essence
- Whisk creamwell (can get from bakery store) till white and light.
- Add in butter and continue whisk till fluffy.
- Add icing sugar little by little until it is sweet enough.
- Alternate with milk, I estimated 2 tablespoon, just enough for 9 medium size cupcakes.
- Add a drop of vanilla essence.
- Pipe onto cool cupcakes.
Pretty pink and white icing with double hearts
To improve my piping skill
Not very satisfied with my previous cupcake decor, this time I try pipe out rossette icing instead. The tip is a little bit small, therefore I need to make many swirls ontop of another to get this result.
Quite presentable right?
I just love to bake. It is such a good destress activity and I hope I will not need any more hair loss treatments when less stressful.
