Recipe's preparation

  1. Add all ingredients to bowl and mix sp 5 for 30 secs or until smooth.

     

    To pipe you may need to refrigerate before using.

Tip

This is enough to ice a 30cm cake or 24 cupcakes. Refrigerate before piping, can be coloured.


Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting is great as well- particularly with red velvet cake. Replace the vanilla with a tsp grated lemon rind or 2 tsp lemon essence.


Use full fat cream cheese. Lite cream cheese ends up too soft.

    Delicious, I used 100g butter (salted) that's all I had, 150g icing sugar, grated rind of half lemon and 2tsp lemon juice. Most definitely the best cream cheese frosting recipe. This recipe is a good base to suit everyone's likes. Thanks for posting

    I only used 250g c cheese
    150g butter
    150 icing sugar
    lemon rind.

    cut the sugar back and using less butter gives a firmer result.

    Awesome recipe. Happy faces right around the table. I used this frosting on a banana, date & walnut cake & today will pipe onto an orange cake. Can't wait for afternoon tea! 😋 Update: added some lemon zest & lemon juice for my third batch & placed in fridge before using - yummmm 😁
