I had a problem making the cream…the flour got caught around the edges of the pot and I had issues with the pastry cream being really lumpy. I was wondering how I could avoid that situation.

Otherwise the recipe went really well for me! I love the cupcakes!

I searched for the salted caramel frosting recipe and the bourbon one came up. Do I just omit the bourbon for the salted caramel frosting?

thanks

I’ve been asked to bake a big batch of cupcakes for an event (300!) at an event held in another country (I like to make my life easy..) I’m just wondering if I could make the bourbon caramel in advance so i can take it “readymade” with me, then mix with the other frosting ingredients just prior to decorating the cakes?

Good recipe. I found that 20 was too long for my oven and that the pastry cream only filled 18 cupcakes. Also 2 egg yolks are required, not one as the list states. I prefer using cornstarch in my pastry cream in which case only half the flour measurement in cornstarch is used, being in this case 1 Tbsp. I would recommend that the pastry cream measurements be changed to:
1-1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
3 egg yolks
1-1/2 tsp butter
3/4 tsp dark rum
3/4 tsp vanilla extract

We have extra frosting and it is delicious!
