Sugar | Chocolate Buttercream - In this recipe, we will see how to make a
super soft and creamy chocolate buttercream without icing sugar. Usually when we make buttercream, it turns out gritty due to the addition of icing sugar but this is the smoothest buttercream that I've tasted. It's not only smooth and creamy, it's very tasty as it's not too sweet like the normal American Buttercream.

Petal Frosting
Petal frosting is a beautiful way to frost a cake. I have always wanted to do this frosting but end up doing rosettes since it's simple and easy.
This is the first time I tried this petal frosting so it's by no means, neat or perfect but I'm sure I will get better as I practice this design often!
I did this frosting on my Neapolitan Cake that I baked for my husband's birthday many months ago. The cake itself is a fantastic, delicious cake and this frosting complimented the cake beautifully!

Honeycomb Frosting | Honeycomb Cake
I want to share a simple frosting technique for a celebration cake that I make often, which will look lovely on the finished cake. This is so easy to do and at the end you have a beautifully frosted cake! I do this quite often when I run out of time to do something elaborate. Plus, it hides all my flaws in frosting, so I love this trick!!
I first came across this method some years ago at Alexandra's Recipes and I immediately wanted to try this frosting. Now it's become very famous and you can find it all over the internet.
There are two ways to make this honeycomb frosting and I follow the method given by Alexandra and it's easy and simple. There is another way to do this (which I've mentioned in the notes), I find that to be a little complicated so this is how I do my honeycomb frosting.

Salted Caramel Ganache
I love to frost my cakes with ganache and I frost most of my cakes with chocolate ganache or whipped cream. These are my favourite frostings. I like adding different flavors to the ganache, which makes the ganache taste even better! I have posted an easy to make nutella ganache which also tastes absolutely yum!
Salted Caramel can be added to anything you bake or on ice creams and desserts and it tastes so good. Adding it to ganache just took it to a totally different level! I'm not a great fan of salted caramel but even I loved this ganache!

Chocolate Buttercream Recipe
I have never been a fan of buttercream frosting so I always hesitate to make buttercream for all my cakes and cupcakes. I always prefer whipped cream and ganache. But I realized that everybody is not like me! There are people who prefer and some who love buttercream! So when I made these egg free chocolate cupcakes for my dad's office I chose to make this chocolate butter cream for them.
I should say this turned out to be delicious! Every body simply loved the cupcakes with this buttercream. I got calls from my dad's office, to tell me how much they loved it!
This recipe makes enough to frost a 8 or 9 inch cake. I halved this recipe to frost my cupcakes. I got this recipe from an ace baker who runs her own business Sugar Bowl - Candida, who was kind enough to share this recipe! It's such a wonderful recipe to frost a cake and pipe with it too!

Nutella Ganache
I have been trying to loose some weight and a bottle of nutella has been staring at me for so long! I have tried to resist it for far too long and then one day when I baked a cake for my daughter's friend's family, I wanted to use up this nutella simply because I won't have it lying around! That turned out to be such a brilliant idea!
My most favorite frosting is ganache, I frost most of my cakes and cupcakes with ganache. I have also written a detailed post on how to make ganache. Adding nutella to the ganache, made an already yummy ganache, even more irresistible!

Homemade Chocolate Sauce Recipe / How to make Chocolate Sauce
I love chocolate! I have said that many times here! So I always have chocolate sauce in my kitchen to use it on desserts. Chocolate sauce definitely makes the dessert taste more good. It makes a sinful dessert even more sinful! I used to buy Hershey's all the time but when I made this sauce for the first time, I never went back to store bought chocolate sauce again.

How to make Ganache
Ganache is the silky soft chocolate cream you find on cakes as a filling or as a frosting. It is what makes a chocolate cake more sinful and delicious, making you want to lick it off!
It is basically made by mixing cream with chocolate. It is very simple to make once you know the basics and ratio of chocolate to cream. Generally, the higher the cocoa butter in the chocolate ( the darker it is), the less cream you will need. So for dark chocolate ganache the ratio will be 2:1 - twice as much chocolate to cream. For milk chocolate - 2.5:1 (chocolate to cream), for white chocolate 3.5:1 ratio is used. It also depends on the type of chocolate you are using. Generally ganache is made with dark / semi sweet or bittersweet chocolate but you can make it with milk chocolate too.
