  1. Hi. I have a frosting recipe that calls for butter, sugar and milk.
    Just beat it together and that's it. My question is: if there is
    uncooked butter and milk in the frosting, then how can you leave it at
    room temp for much time at all? Can you? Are these cupcakes going to
    have to stay in the fridge at all times? Thanks.

    A typical powdered sugar frosting with butter and milk is fine to leave
    unrefrigerated for a couple of days.

    My questions is, do you flavor this at all? Vanilla, maybe?

    The sugar acts as a preservative.

    Yes, the recipe calls for vanilla, too. Thanks for the info.

    THere is virtually no available moisture in the mixture for bacteria to
    feed off of, and sugar, like salt, helps preserve things.

    If the cupcakes are any good, they won't be around long enough to
    consider storage options. "-) They'll be fine at room temp.
