Frosting
- Soak the saffron in milk.
- Chill the cream and also the vessel and whipping blades in the fridge
- Whip the cream till peaks are formed. Add the rose essence, saffron and saffron essence. I have used Silver Mark cream that is mildly sweet and therefore I have not added Sugar. In case you are using any other cream that does not contain sugar please add Icing sugar as required.
- If you plan to do rustic frosting you can use cream at this stage.
- For rosettes or any other piping technique beat the cream to get stiff peaks
- After frosting the cupcakes decorate them with silver balls, chopped pista, etc.
