    "excerpt": "An easy Irish cream buttercream, flavoured with a latte sachet and beaten light, for piping onto cupcakes.",
    "content_text": "An Irish cream latte sachet has more than one use: instead of drinking it, whisk it into a little milk and beat it through a proper buttercream. You get all that Irish cream flavour with no alcohol, in an icing that pipes beautifully onto cupcakes or sandwiches a cake together. The usual rules of good buttercream apply: have the butter properly soft, sift the icing sugar, and beat it long enough to go pale and light.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk.
