Butter icing mix recipe please
« on: October 16, 2009, 04:06:58 am »

Does anyone already have a butter icing tmx recipe to save me converting, by any chance??  I'm guessing I'd better make a double quantity of it to be on the safe side.  Does that sound right, all you experienced cake decorators out there?

I just use the 'good ol' Day to Day Cookery recipe and it works out fine but I do love royal icing the very best!
Butter Icing
1 cup icing sugar
1-2 tbsp butter
1-2 tbsp water or milk
vanilla
Whiz it altogether.
Variations
Fruit icing - less butter and replace water with fruit juice and tbsp lemon juice
Chocolate - mix in 1-2 tbsp cocoa with a smidge extra water to mix.
Coffee - add a tbsp coffee (essence better but can use instant) add in water as needed.
Mocha - add 2 tsp coffee and 2 tsp cocoa blended with 1 tbsp hot water or milk to mix.
I have not found a problem with the smaller amount in TMX.
