• While the cupcakes are cooling you can make the butter icing.
• First you need to put your butter into a bowl and and gradually add the icing sugar until all of it in mixed in.
• Now the mixture, so far, should look crumbly this is when you should add the water so that the icing will stick together.
• The icing will be done when it is a very pale yellow.
