The Maddy copy looks wonderful. I love this icing. I make it and then freeze the left overs for next time.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Gorgeous Jamberie  8)

This icing has served me well for 220 cupcakes in the last month!
I double all quantities (except the vanilla extract...just use 50g for a double batch)
Everyone raves about its flavour & consistency...if my Thermie blew up tomorrow...I'd buy another just to make this  ;)





.........EAT CAKE!

I'm making cupcakes for my son's wedding in January, so will definitely be using this recipe! The plan is ILB's Chocolate Cake and this icing in vanilla and white chocolate, so it's all ILB!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Long time no post, but I NEEDED to come and post about this one!

My best friends hen's day was yesterday, and I decided to FINALLY try this icing. I've made the roux a few times and not got around to completing the icing  :-)) I'm never much of a fan of buttercream icing the next day, that slight crust that destroys the softness.

This icing doesn't do that though! There were literally moans of pleasure at the cupcakes on the day lol! I made the raspberry version Maddy posted. Vanilla and Chocolate Mud mini GF cupcakes, with a raspberry frosting (used white wings GF flour). All tasted amazing, everyone was shocked a) to hear they are GF b) that they were made by the Bridesmaid and not the club we went to for lunch lol! Score ;)

So thank you guys! This is my go to recipe from now on!

The cupcake look great, the display looks good too.
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!
