Bugs

What's your favorite bug to eat? A butterfly?


Dragonfly?

Ladybug or bumblebee?


I'd go with the butterfly. And do you prefer to top your bugs with super sweet American-style icing, or with barely sweet vanilla whipped cream?


I prefer the vanilla cream. Any guess what I like to eat alongside my bugs?


Colorful berries, of course. You get the richness of freshly whipped buttercream without all the sugar. This combination might even have fewer calories. But then again...who really cares when you're eating bugs!

Vanilla Whipped Cream

• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 tsp. sugar
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Whip the cream until soft peaks form, then add the sugar and vanilla. Continue whipping until stiff peaks form, then pipe onto your favorite vanilla bug cake.
