Indulge in the heavenly taste of this Lavender Buttercream Frosting, perfect for elevating your desserts to a whole new level. The delicate floral notes of lavender combined with the rich creaminess of butter make this frosting a dreamy addition to cakes, cupcakes, and more.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Lavender Infusion:

  • 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tablespoons Culinary Grade Lavender

For the Frosting:

  • 1 cup Butter
  • 4 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Frosting Preparation

    Infuse culinary-grade lavender in heavy cream by gently heating it over low heat for about 30 minutes.

  2. Beating the Butter

    Beat the butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. Adding Powdered Sugar

    Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing on low speed initially. Continue until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes.

  4. Incorporating Lavender Cream

    Slowly pour in the infused lavender cream while mixing on low speed, then increase to medium speed and beat until fluffy, approximately 2-3 minutes.

  5. Adjusting Consistency

    Check frosting consistency and adjust with cream or powdered sugar as needed.

  6. Final Whipping

    Give it one last whip to ensure fluffiness for spreading or piping.
