Mga sis may alam po ba kayong cupcake icing/frosting na di natutunaw? Yung hindi po buttercream ha, yung katulad po ng oarang lasang merengue pero di matigas masyado or chocolate icing/frosting. Yung di po talaga nagmemelt. TIA!! ☺ Magbabake po kasi ako sa binyag ng baby ko hindi parin ako makahanap ng maayos na frosting para sa cupcakes.

Sis hotmom, you can start with banana bread. No special tools needed.

We just got home from a vacation and I bought 2 blocks of fudge. I dont want to eat it by itself. Ano ba pwedeng gawin sa fudge? or may recipes ba kayo that needs leftover fudge?

[cmax]

^You can probably use it like chocolate ganache on your baked goodies.

^^i use fudge as frosting for my cupcakes instead of buttercream..

I saw this baking supplies shop sa may dona soledad street near Sm Bicutan. The owners are very friendly. They even carry dolce de leche filling na ready made for only 150 pesos good for around 30cupcakes. They also have cupcake and other sweet recipes for u to experiment on... if ur a beginner, that's a good place to go as they'll give u tips on how to get started...

question lang po... pwede bang gumawa ng madaming cream cheese frosting then just add certain flavor for certain cupcakes that will be baked. like just add cocoa powder to the cream cheese frosting for a chocolate cream cheese frosting? or add coffee?

guys, try getting cupcakes from The Flour Girl. They have a kiosk at Rockwell. They kinda cost and they are kinda small but the density of the cupcake makes up for all it's seeming liabilities. Moist, rich and super dense cupcakes nila. bigat sa tiyan. bigtime fave ko dun ang salted caramel tska red velvet cupcakes. yummy talaga! try nyo...

[friendlyneighbor]

Hi mga sis, please share naman ng recipe nyo for frosting. Im looking for  an icing  na di madaling matunaw at di ganun ka tamis. I dont have a problem baking a cupcake but my problem is yung frosting. Yung lagi ko kasing ginagawa is always runny at sobrang tamis. Made cream cheese frosting kaya lang sa weather natin sa pinas, natutunaw kaagad.  Help. Thanks mga sis.

^sis j27 how i wish i can view photobucket here sa office, hindi ko makita pics mo sayang

mga sis, I posted this already in baking thread, can you help me understand, ano ba talaga yung shortening?
when baking, I use all raw ingredients, meaning walang ready mix na, from batter to frosting ako lahat nagtitimpla, and di ko lang talaga alam kung para saan yung shortening na yun

[j27]

^madalas ginagamit ang shortening sa buttercream frosting, minsan 50/50 sila ng butter.

pero meron akong recipe for cookies na kailangan din ang shortening.

san bang recipe mo sana gagamitin yan?

[Staying_me]

sis J27 thanks
bale ano purpose nya? sabi kasi flavorless oil, so parang ginagaya yung butter ganon?
o para hindi sya natutunaw? kasi d b yung buttercream pag iniwan mo sa labas, ang lambot na ng frosting pero hold pa naman nya yung shape nya
 
sa cake pops recipe ko sya nakita e, yung candy melt, kelangan lagyang ng shortening pero parang teaspoon lang. ang napansin ko lang nung walang shortening yung candy melt ko, ang bilis nya tumigas ulit kaya ang hirap i dip nung cake pops kasi ang thick na nung candy melt, tinry ko lagyan ng shortening, ayun medyo hindi n sya ganun kabilis manigas

salamat sis

[killbill]

Mga sis may nabibili bang ready made buttercream frosting? Bumili kasi ako ng cupcake maker para makapag bonding kami ng anak ko. Kesa sa bumili pako ng mixer

Sisses, kakagawa ko lang ng carrot cupcakes. I'm not sure what went wrong pero okay naman yung texture nung cupcake. Yung lasa lang para sakin medyo kakaiba. Ito yung recipe na sinunod ko except yung cooking time 20-25 mins lang ginawa ko sa 350F. Tska binawasan ko yung oil ginawa kong 1cup lang. Then wala kong mahanap na walnut kaya cashew nut ginamit ko. Di ko lam kung yun yung reason.

Sa frosting naman, natural lang ba yung may konting asim? Sa cream cheese ba nangagaling yun?

[virgogirl98]

^ sis, did you sift all the dry ingredients like the flour, baking soda, etc? kasi maybe doon nanggaling yung kakaibang lasa ng cupcake mo, merong flour or baking soda na hindi na-sift kaya ganun? kasi ako nadala noon, dahil sa katamaran ko mag-sift napansin ko medyo may pait sa ibang part ng cupcake ko. tska dapat na-mix mo maige yung ingredients bago mo isalang sa oven. yun lang yung sa tingin ko yung pinanggalingan ng kakaibang lasa. yung carrot cupcakes ko naman na galing kay ina, yun na talaga ginagamit ko kasi nagustuhan ko talaga yung lasa. with regards to the cream cheese naman, hindi naman maasim yung sa akin, tama lang yung tamis. yung iba kasing ginamit ko na cream cheese frosting masyado namang matamis.
