I've just done my 'test' making. It's lovely! I made a quick batch of cupcakes and used it on them. 2 out of 3 ate and liked the icing. The other one is a fusspot haha! It's a beautiful, almost pearly white colour. I didn't find it too sweet which is good because by the time it is iced, there will be a lot of icing. I only used a couple of teaspoons of vanilla - 35g seemed like it would be quite a lot so I didn't want to waste it in my trail run. Does everyone use the 35g? I use the extract from Aldi.

Glad you had success!!
My 'secret' ingredient is about a capful of strawberry essence (just the one from the supermarket) in place of the vanilla.

Well done. It will be a great success. I didn't ice the outside of the cake as it was only for us.......trying to be healthy.

Oh Jamberie, that's a great idea! Might make it a little more appealing for the children perhaps? I thought it was lovely but I guess it's a childrens party so I must consider the kids 😄

I've made both and even the adults seem to prefer the strawberry essence, so that's now my standard.

Well I can't rave highly enough about this frosting. It was perfect, and I'm so glad it was on here! The little bit of extra work in making it was so worth it. The addition of the strawberry essence was great, thanks Jamberie!

Great job emmy, I knew you'd like it. I don't make many cakes at all but this is my favourite icing.

This will be definitely be my go to icing now. I'm so glad because I'd had some icing disasters, including a very gritty icing at my daughters birthday party so I was starting to regret getting rid of my stand mixer. This was the inside, and I did a quick crumb layer and popped it in the fridge before doing a final coat. Looking forward to trying some piping next time I bake some cupcakes

Great cake Emmy. I love and use this recipe all the time. It's also yummy with strawberry jam as per Maddy's tweaks. Maddy's chocolate version is amazing too.

Oh thanks Kimmy! The chocolate one looks divine. My son asked for chocolate cake for his birthday (not until July) so this will be perfect. He was the only one that wasn't overly keen on the vanilla - although he was slightly tempted by the addition of the strawberry essence. He asked if we could do the same but chocolate. Thanks for posting the link!

Hi
Wondering if I should put the frosting on and then do I leave cupcakes out overnight or refrigerate?
Also I am making rainbow cake should I put together with cream and layer it today and also ice and leave refrigerated for tomorrow.
Responses greatly appreciated.
