February - wonderful month ... It's cold outside and, perhaps, the most frosty days here in Moscow fall on February. But there is a special charm in February– the joy of waiting for spring. And a delightful feeling– spring is not far off. The day is getting longer, and the air more and more often brings to us subtle echoes of spring warmth ... Isn't it? Or is it just me that thinks so?
If you do not agree, then here is another argument in favor of an amazing month - February. It is at this time that we celebrate such a romantic holiday.– Valentine's Day. I know what you will say ... This is not our holiday. But, friends, why can't we draw good where it is? After all, feelings, love, awe– all this does not require that we postpone, cancel for the sake of our principles. Do you need a reason to love? No ... And if it is needed, then let it be on February 14– an occasion to once again arrange a romantic dinner for your loved ones.
And on this occasion, I bring you a very touching and tender recipe. I conceived it especially for the holiday of all lovers. I was inspired and created a real flavor bouquet: delicate cupcakes with a "secret" - let your loved one try to reveal it ... "Secret" in custard flavored with rose water. A cupcake cap can be melting and tender based on Swiss meringue or stronger and creamier. My advice: prepare a double portion with two types of creams - Trust me, they won't last long. Amazing… They are absolutely amazing…
