It's my sons birthday today! We usually end up making a few batches of cupcakes to take to our various activities, and I decided to use this icing for one of the occasions! I like this icing, as it uses fruit, and while it does contain a lot of sugar, it doesn't contain butter or artificial colours.
Method:
- Blend 250 grams fresh or frozen raspberries (I didn't strain the seeds, but you can if you prefer)
- Add 1 cup icing sugar
This makes a beautiful shiny glaze. Also a really lovely shade of red, and it tastes really nice! I think I did make too much, but the sugar will keep it until valentine's day
So technically, this isn't a heart, but it will ice a few heart shaped cookies, and i thought I should add a project that isn't all crochet!

Nothing beats the taste of fresh raspberries in this glaze! The flavour just pops - so much nicer than using food colouring. Found you through FYBF. I'm an L-plated crocheter who struggles with holding the hook correctly. Looking forward to snooping around your blog for some great tips!
