This post first appeared on my other blog in 2016, but since I no longer maintain that one, I'm reposting some of my favorites here!
This past fall, my friend’s parents were celebrating their 35th
wedding anniversary. She wanted
Limoncello Cake (made with homemade limoncello!) with Blueberry frosting –
which worked out perfectly, because her parents’ wedding colors were blue and
yellow!
Because the cake had to be made several days before the
event, I ended up swapping out the blueberry cream cheese frosting with
blueberry buttercream frosting.
To do so, I added the blueberry sauce to Basic Buttercream –
be warned, the buttercream will need to beat for much longer than a typical
buttercream, because the juice from the berries wants to weep and make a mess
of everything. I recommend mixing the
frosting, then setting it aside for 15 minutes and restirring to take care of
any problem areas.
I also used Royal Icing roses instead of fresh, also because
the cake was picked up 2 ½ days before the event.
