Cupcake Icing

I am still trying to perfect my icing recipe and trying to practice getting the icing on the cupcake absolutely perfect.  I have come to find out that you can alter the icing {RECIPE} any way you want.  I have added cream cheese, liquid coffee creamer, sour cream, whipping cream, and you could probably even add in yogurt if you wanted too.  I like adding in liquid coffee creamer because it gives the icing a rich vanilla taste but only add in a a little; however, if you add too much, just keep adding in more confectioners sugar.  I know with time, that I will get better at applying the icing to the cupcake.  These are red velvet with cream cheese icing.

I felt it was only appropriate to make some of the real estate agents
cupcakes that were personalized.

  3. VERY CUTE! I would have never thought to add coffee creamer to the icing but I'm glad you passed that idea along to us. So many different flavors at the grocery store now. Your red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese icing look divine.
