Hi Alayna,

You totally could! I’d recommend adding in 1/3 cup of strawberry jelly, or you also could add in 1/3 cup of freeze dried strawberry powder + an additional 2 Tbsp of heavy cream. Hope that helps, happy baking!

Hi Kat,

Great question! If you add 1/2 cup of black cocoa the frosting will be a lot thicker. I’d recommend also adding in an additional 1/3 cup of heavy cream to give the frosting the right consistency. I would also recommend adding in some black gel food coloring, the black cocoa on its own will give it kind of a gray color. You can also add in some melted dark chocolate to give it a darker base color. Hope that helps, happy baking!

Also, do you think I would need additional food coloring to obtain a black frosting?

Hi Lori,

Cream cheese icing is more like a glaze, similar to what I use on my mini cinnamon rolls! Here’s the link: https://chelsweets.com/mini-cinnamon-rolls/
Hope that helps, happy baking!

Hi Marion,

This recipe can be used to pipe rosettes on a cake! But make sure the cake is chilled and that you’re kitchen isn’t too warm. It is a bit softer than my classic American buttercream so I’d recommend taking those precautions to make sure your rosettes turn out great!
