I follwed your instructions for the frosting and it was perfect. I mounded it on top of lemon cupcakes filled with lemon curd: Lemon Meringue "Pie" Cupcakes for a little gir's birthday party. They were a HIT. Thank You! QUESTIION: I got a request for a champagne cake from a friend - and dont' want to do the predictable champange scented buttercream frosting. I'm wondering if replacing the water in this recipe with champange might yeild the same texture. Have you ever tried using a different liquid? Hi Nikki, No, we haven't tried it with champagne. I'd suggest a web search of some of the cake forums out there to see if you can find any info, or just dive in and give it a try. ~ MaryJane
