Cake Icing Simple. A simple from-scratch lemon cupcake has blackberry buttercream frosting. A classic combination is red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.
The differences are the ratio of ingredients and absence of butter. For best results let your cream cheese soften up a bit before you break out the whisk. Cream cheese frostings are absolutely delicioussmooth and creamy and luxurious.

This cupcake is a refreshing hit. You can follow the recipe directions to mix and bake in the same pan but if you want to remove the cake from the pan before serving you should mix the batter in a bowl and pour it into a greased floured and lined cake pan. Garnish each cupcake with a blackberry or a pinch of lemon zest. The terms icing and buttercream are often used interchangeably but icing is typically light and liquid.
