Frosting Recipes

We love coffee frosting, and came across this fabulous recipe from Jamie of all Trades.  It combines Starbucks Via instant coffee, coffee liqueur, egg whites, butter and sugar, and check out her beautiful presentation.

Coffee frosting is more versatile than you think.   It’s fabulous with flavors like cinnamon, chocolate, mocha, vanilla, caramel and walnuts.  For a cake or cupcake garnish, chocolate-covered coffee beans, chocolate shavings, or candied walnuts are always a hit.

This fabulous cake and frosting is for coffee lovers only.  It features instant coffee in both the cake batter, as well as flecks in the frosting itself, giving it a lovely texture.  Pioneer Woman’s photographs of the baking process are fabulous and she also gives wise baking and frosting tips throughout.
