Valentines day cake

this is my first blog......so you can say a trial blog from myside.i have made butter cream icing to decorate a sponge cake.like the blog the butter cream was also a trial version and luckily it came out very well....you can see that in the pictures.




i have made rose flowers to decorate top and basket weaving for the sides.all with same butter cream but added colours to it.the cake was not baked by me i just bought it frm the store.

the recipie for the butter cream is as follows.

Buttercream Frosting/Icing

2/3 cup butter -- softened
4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons cream or milk

Directions:
In a bowl, beat butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating well. Beat in vanilla and enough cream or milk until desired spreading consistency. 1 batch frosts a 2-layer, 13 x 9-inch cake or about 2 doz cupcakes

i got this recipie from some you tube video long back...sorry for not posting the you tube link as i dont remember the person who posted it..got it by random searches.Also i promise that i will post videos on flower making and basket weaving pretty soon........
do let me know your thoughts sothat i can improve my blogging...
