Birthdays are hard afterwards but still sharing good things with your family are important. Walnut and coffee happens to be one of my favs after lemon of course.

Also it must be good for your waistline to bake something you don't want to eat; I know that the weekly bake (I have to limit myself) is the biggest threat to my ongoing battle of the bulgeGeorgiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05254925986497293359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-23233778781357375752012-04-30T10:31:58.732+01:002012-04-30T10:31:58.732+01:00Hi Truly Scrumptious
That's very kind of you!...Hi Truly Scrumptious<br /><br />That's very kind of you! I always make my buttercream in the kitchenaid. I use the flat paddle beater not the balloon whisk, and start with the butter on its own. Whisk this until it's light and pale and almost looks like (over)whipped cream. Then add the icing sugar. <br /><br />Hope this helps!<br /><br />Happy bakingThe Caked Crusaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02840224194242219981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430441346293872555.post-72900866117297800152012-04-30T09:54:18.133+01:002012-04-30T09:54:18.133+01:00I'm always so impressed by your buttercream CC...I'm always so impressed by your buttercream CC.

It's really bizarre but I find that a standard cake but with coffee in is always somehow lighter than the cake without - weird!
