Basic Butter Frosting and Orange Butter Frosting
These fat-filled luscious frostings are perfect for LCHF-style celebrations. These butter frostings are great for piping, making it easy to create gorgeous and delicious decorations on your low-carb cakes and cupcakes. Naturally, you can also use these scrumptious frostings as fillings, like I have done below with my whoopie pies.
You can easily create your own butter frosting variations by adding other flavorings, extracts or even powdered freeze-dried berries. For example, Sugar-Free Strawberry Jam works extremely well and makes a great frosting for example for the Valentine’s Day celebrations.
Moreover, these frostings are ready in a snap. No need to freeze or let them set. Just beat until fluffy and use immediately! You can store the leftover frosting in the fridge, but just remember to take it to room temperature at least half an hour before using.

Totally Terrific Toasted Pecan Butter
This Totally Terrific Toasted Pecan Butter is a perfect way to include some healthy fats in your LCHF diet. I created a new approach to prepare toasted pecan butter. Instead of brown sugar the butter is browned to get a delicious, nutty flavor. Pecans are also toasted — but not just boringly in a dry skillet or oven. No, they are toasted together in an ample amount of good old butter. Therefore the pecans will be crispy, buttery and toasted outside, and chewy inside. They’ll get a texture which is totally irresistible!
Combined with some more softened butter, sweetener, vanilla (and other spices, if you like), the result is beyond heavenly. This, you cannot resist!

Yes, it could: only 5 healthy ingredients and easy as pie!

Airy Strawberries and Cream Frosting
This sugar-free frosting is bursting with flavor of real strawberries. Unlike creamy and buttery frostings, this dreamy meringue-like frosting is airy and fluffy, not heavy. Real strawberries guarantee the authentic strawberry taste without anything artificial. Using freeze-dried strawberries makes also sure that the frosting doesn’t turn out watery, like it would with fresh strawberries.
This frosting is perfect for cakes and cupcakes. You can also make gelatin dessert — just spoon the mixture into dessert bowls and let set in the fridge for an hour or two. A perfect way to finish any tasty summer meal!

Or with afternoon coffee when in need for some energy.
