Feels like Fall has definitely arrived. A little chilly this morning, and seeing I was up very early this morning and the clouds were looming, I figured it was the perfect day for some baking. It was a day for Village Sweets to work in the test kitchen and come up with a few frostings that are not sweet but have definite taste. Buttercream is usually our choice, made of 100% good old fashioned butter, not the artificial stuff. But it is still on the sweet side. So the work begins…
7 hours later… I made some vanilla cupcakes, strawberry cupcakes and mocha cupcakes. I prepared 2 different buttercreams, a swiss style and a cooked style. I love them both. They are light, and airy and best of all THEY AREN’T TOO SWEET! DELISH!
