I made some lemon and poppyseed cupcakes last week form the magazine and popped them in the freezer, intending to ice them tomorrow ready to take into work on Tuesday. (They turned out beautifully, by the way;))
Unfortunately I'm packing ready to move on Thursday....and I've packed the blummin magazine with the recipe for the icing:mad: Obviously I could just make a simple buttercream....but if anyone has a copy of the magazine I'd be ever so grateful for the proper recipe for the icing. (I even went out and bought food colouring and sugar flowers :o)

Thanks so much.....

    Here we are. The icing is:

    225g/8oz butter
    400g/14oz icing sugar
    Juice of 1 lemon
    Few drops lemon food colouring
    Flowers or sprinkles

    Beat the softened butter then gradually beat in the icing sugar, lemon juice & colouring.

    They look yummy don't they, I'm making them tomorrow.

    HTH.
    Oh dear, here we go again.
