It wouldn't have much flavour then fundj, ....trust me, try the vanilla extract

.....not essence!
....But, if you are using your own vanilla concoction and it's very strong, then I would put in 1-2 tsp only, and make the rest up in grams with milk.

Strawberry version....I blitzed 50g strawberry conserve in my mini processor and added with 1 tsp. vanilla extract.

This might be a silly question, but once you put the butterfly in do you then leave it in right til the end of making the frosting?

maddy · « **Reply #38 on:** August 17, 2012, 12:14:48 pm »

not a silly question....you do leave the butterfly in, and I usually whip it in 1 minute intervals, stop and scrape jug, and repeat that process 3 times.
Truly, I think this is the best textured/tasting buttercream....so silky and doesn't taste like your eating a mouthful of butter with gritty sugar, which I find most buttercream recipes do.
I now just use this recipe, and have been experimenting by adding different flavours in place of the vanilla.

Thanks Maddy. I think I'll try vanilla this time, but I do like the look of your strawberry version. Might try that next time!

My first time making the vanilla frosting it sure is yummy. I read through all the topic before making and using, got some great tips, here's my first go at decorating DS 27 has been having a play with left over icing and cup cakes. Wouldn't let me take a photo of him and his creations.

I turned this ~~frosting~~ (That's so American, isn't it?) icing into banana cream icing

I made the flour/milk mix first, and left to cool.
In a clean jug blitz 70g chopped banana into a puree, doesn't have to be perfect as it's whipped with the butter later. (I used ripe, but not over ripe with dark spots).
Cleaned and dried jug, carried on with recipe and added the banana with 1 tsp. vanilla extract, after the initial 2 minutes of sugar/butter whipping.
You can taste the banana, and it's just as smooth

As usual they look great Maddie, what type of cupcake is it? and is that a malteser on top?
