Рецепт Recipe For Cream Cheese Frosting
A while back I was contracted by a PR company to do 5 blog posts for Canderel. These posts formed part of a campaign which I hope was successful for the brand. Given that my blog is all about sucrose free cooking and baking I found these posts a pleasure to do. I do not usually use Canderel in my recipes as I prefer to use fructose. However, I am not adverse to using any sucrose substitute as long as it works. One of the hardest things to substitute is icing sugar in terms of texture. It has made icing a cake quite a challenge in my baking and more often than not I tend to melt some Canderel dark chocolate and pour it over my cakes to ice them. When the new PR agency for Canderel sent me a hamper to try out it contained sachets of the Canderel Vanilla, a sucralose based product. For those of you who are not aware, sucralose is sucrose based but this is a good alternative for people on a sugar restricted diet. I decided to use the Canderel vanilla in a recipe provided to me by the PR company. The recipe for cream cheese frosting was the icing for red velvet cupcakes. As I was baking a cake the same weekend as wanting to test the recipe, I decided to use it to ice my cake with, rather than bake cupcakes. The original recipe called for Canderel Yellow but I used Canderel Vanilla instead. It left lovely flecks of vanilla in the frosting and it melded into a beautiful flavour over the few days we ate the cake.
