I was browsing one of my many magazines-I have too many to read them all, and I saw a cake that had a glaze on the bottom and frosting on the top. I thought "What a great idea, but let's do it in miniature!" I made some vanilla cupcakes (my favorite) then removed the paper liners after they had completely cooled. I prepared the following glaze. Ingredients
• 3 cups powdered sugar combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir until smooth. Place a
wire rack on a baking pan or over wax paper to catch all of the dripping glaze.
Turn all of your cupcakes upside down on the rack so that the bottoms are up. Spoon the glaze over the bottom of the cupcakes. I even used the spoon
to spread the glaze evenly over the bottoms. Dry 5 minutes and repeat. Let the glaze set for at least 15 minutes before turning over to frost the
tops of the cupcakes. I used a white buttercream frosting. Yummy!
These cupcakes with glaze on the bottom were definitely a big hit at my
husband's birthday party. |
Topping Tip:After frosting with orange icing, top cupcakes with a small mandarin orange slice, a candied orange peel, or even a small twisted slice of a ripe orange. Enjoy! |
