Vanina's advice
- If you fail to make the cream base, it remains liquid and does not harden, you should not freeze it. This will only make the situation worse. Add shortbread, crushed to flour. This composition perfectly absorbs moisture, and therefore the mass will become thick.
- An excellent thickener for cream is cocoa powder.
- It is best to let the cupcakes sit in the refrigerator for a while after cooking. Better yet, if you make muffins in advance a couple of days before the holiday, do not decorate them with cream right away. Make the cream mixture before your guests arrive. This way the cakes will stay fresh longer.

Delicate cream for eclairs
I happily prioritize Italian buttercream. It seems to me that it is in this version that eclairs are truly interesting. This “composition” takes me back to childhood.
Ingredients for cream:
- Egg whites – 2 pcs. (large or medium eggs);
- Butter – 275 gr;
- Sugar – 90 gr;
- Water – 30 ml.
- I put sugar (50 g) and water on the fire. I make syrup. I bring the temperature of the syrup to 116 degrees (this can be easily determined using a pastry thermometer or by testing the thread. Readiness can be checked in another way. If you drop the syrup into cold water and this drop can be stretched with your fingers, then the syrup is ready and can be removed from the heat.
- Beat eggs and 40 grams of sugar into a light foam.
- I add the eggs to the syrup and stir constantly. At the end, I beat it into a thick, shiny foam until it forms stiff peaks.
- While I'm whipping, the mixture is cooling. When it reaches room temperature, add butter in small pieces (I take the butter out of the refrigerator half an hour before preparing the cream so that it warms up and becomes soft). I whisk without stopping until all the butter is in the cream. I bring it to a homogeneous consistency.
Filling eclairs with cream
I boldly cut the eclair blanks into halves. I fill one half with cream (I first put the cream in a pastry bag, but you can also use a spoon). I cover with the other half and fasten them together.
All that remains is to prepare the glaze, which I will pour on top of the cakes. For me it will be chocolate ganache. To prepare it I will need:
- Chocolate (it’s better to take bitter) – 100 g;
- Cream (35%) – 110 ml.
I break the chocolate into pieces and pour the heated cream over it. Stir until the chocolate is completely dissolved. Or vice versa, I put pieces of chocolate in hot cream. By the way, this photo shows what kind of cream and chocolate I use for the ganache.
Now you can pour or dip the eclairs in ganache (after standing in the refrigerator for about an hour). Prick with a fork and dip the eclairs, or brush the top with a pastry brush.
This is exactly what I love so much. My taste! Well, now, let me show you how varied the taste of cream can be!
Muffin cream: butter cream
- Cooking time:
10 – 15 minutes. - Number of servings:
for 400 – 500 g of ready-made muffins. - Kitchen utensils:
several deep, spacious bowls with a capacity of 600 ml, tablespoons and teaspoons, cotton towels, kitchen scales or measuring cup, sharp knife and whisk.
Also, be sure to use a food processor with a whisk function or a regular hand blender.
Ingredients
How to choose the right ingredients
This type of cream is quite simple, but to make it quickly and easily, you will need to select the appropriate ingredients.
- Under no circumstances replace butter with spread or margarine - the cream will turn out less fluffy, grayish in appearance and not very tasty.
- To implement this recipe, you can choose less fatty cream: from 30%. It is also worth noting that vanilla sugar can be replaced with vanilla essence (put one drop of solution into the cream).

Composition and cooking secrets
The main ingredients in muffin dough are eggs, butter and sugar, and flour. Berries (raspberries, cherries, strawberries), fruits (apples, peaches), nuts, cottage cheese, chocolate, caramel, and many other products are added as filling.
While preparing the dough, knead the dry and wet components separately, so that later they can be quickly combined and not mixed. To prepare the dough, you do not need electrical auxiliary devices, because everything is kneaded with a spoon. If you knead the dough using a mixer, for example, the muffins will turn out heavy.
How can you diversify a standard recipe?
Custard
To make muffins with custard even more appetizing in appearance, sprinkle them with confectionery powder or coconut flakes on top, you can also place finely chopped candied fruits on top of the filling.
Chocolate cream
Butter will look great in chocolate cream; it should be added during the final beating. The oil will help the filler harden and allow it to better hold its shape.
Butter cream
In order to diversify the muffin cream, you can add a few drops of lemon essence or pomegranate juice.
- Try to always use chilled ingredients when preparing creams: this will make the filling more airy, and it will take very little time to prepare.
- To ensure that the custard is not too thick, try not to cook the syrup for too long: it is enough to achieve complete dissolution of the sugar and a slightly thickened consistency.
Experiment often with preparing different baked goods to quickly gain valuable experience. For example, any freshly prepared cream is suitable, and fillers can also be used for decoration. Among other things, chocolate cream goes well with fruit, for example, and creamy cream perfectly complements.

This cream is well suited for flowers using the Malaysian technique.

- 40 ml water
- 120 g sugar
- a pinch of salt

Meringue is distinguished by its high density. The composition will not be very sweet.
The cooking process is a little more complicated than all of the above, but you won’t find a better way to decorate cakes.

- Beat the egg whites while the syrup cooks. I add citric acid to them to form stable peaks and beat the mixture again.
- Whisk and add syrup little by little. You need to continue beating until the mass begins to cool.
- I add slurry into the cooled mass. oil. I'm whipping it up.
- If the cream settles, you can put it in a cool place for 10 minutes and beat again.

That's all, now the sweetness is ready, and therefore I rush to fill the cupcakes with cream.
#9 Chocolate ganache
Ideal for covering a cake with mastic, it can also be used to decorate cakes and cupcakes, and make fillings for desserts.
Ingredients:
- high quality chocolate
- cream with a fat content of at least 33%
For dark ganache (50-60% cocoa content) you will need 2 parts dark chocolate and one part cream with at least 33% fat content. If the ambient temperature is quite high, you need to take 2.5 or even 3 parts of chocolate.
For milk ganache (30% cocoa content) you will need 3 parts milk chocolate and one part cream with at least 33% fat content. In warm weather, the amount of chocolate should be increased to 3.5-4 parts.
For white ganache you need to take 3 parts white chocolate and one part cream with at least 33% fat content. In warm weather, as with milk ganache, increase the amount of chocolate to 3.5-4 parts. In general, white chocolate is the softest chocolate; white chocolate ganache tends to spread in the heat, so many confectioners are not very willing to work with it in the warm season. If you're a beginner, it's best to start with a dark or milky ganache.
Instructions:
Chop the chocolate very finely with a knife.
Pour the cream into a deep saucepan with thick walls, place over medium heat, keep on heat until small bubbles appear on the surface, remove from heat. Cool slightly until the bubbles disappear and add the chocolate, tilt the pan from side to side so that the cream covers the chocolate and leave for a few minutes until the chocolate melts. Then gently stir the mass until smooth using a silicone spatula; you can use a whisk, but it must be completely dry! Place the pan over a VERY low heat and stir until all the chocolate pieces are completely broken up and the mixture is glossy and smooth. Pour the ganache into a microwave-safe bowl, cover with cling film and leave overnight at room temperature to stabilize. Before use, warm up in the microwave at the lowest power.

The resulting ganache should be put in the refrigerator for a short time, after which it can be used to decorate cupcakes.

This amazingly delicious cream is used for filling cakes, cupcakes, and tartlets. It can be served as an independent dessert. And this cream is made very simply and quickly.

bird's milk
This recipe calls for using the mixture immediately after it is made. The cream hardens very quickly. Sometimes even a couple of minutes will be enough for this.
I recommend using it as a layer, and therefore first put “Bird's Milk” in the cold for 10 minutes, and only then start using it as a decoration.
Ingredients for preparation: 250 gr. sah. powders; 4 things. chickens eggs; 4.5 tsp citric acid; 1.5 tbsp. gelatin; 150 ml of warm water, boil it first.
Cooking process:
- Soak the gelatin in warm water for 15 minutes to swell, but at this time beat the egg whites. Sah. powder and lime. The acid needs to be mixed and then added to the egg whites while beating.
- During this time, the gelatin will swell, so place it in a water bath and melt, stirring.

You can make not only a very delicate and tasty cream, but also a healthy one. Just keep in mind that you need to buy full-fat cottage cheese, it should not be dry.
In this case, you can grind it until smooth.

Baking custard
Don’t forget that as the cakes bake, they will become porous inside. And outside they will grow very large. Therefore, I place them at a decent distance from each other. First, I put the baking sheet with the preparations in an oven preheated to 210 degrees. At this temperature, my eclairs will bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the degrees to 180. And leave the cakes for another 25-35 minutes in the oven.
Attention! How long the eclairs will sit in the oven depends on their size. For small custards, 20 minutes is enough.
My today's “slender” eclairs took 15 minutes to prepare.
My conclusion about adding milk to the dough
If you replace water in a recipe with milk, then you need about the same amount of milk as water. Nothing changes in the preparation of the dough either. As a result, the cakes are tender and soft. I didn’t notice much difference with eclairs prepared entirely in water, but many housewives are accustomed to dough with milk - and prefer this recipe!
The only thing I wouldn’t recommend doing is replacing the water completely with milk, in which case the dough turns out a little rubbery.
I talked about the classic choux pastry. Let's move on to the cream right away.
