You can make the frosting the day before and keep chilled in the frig. You may need to leave it out at room temperature to be soft enough to pipe though. Also a quick whip would probably help the consistency too. Hope that helps!

These look awesome and I can’t wait to try them. Does the frosting need to be used immediately or can it be refrigerated over-night???

Gorgeous cupcakes!
I had no idea you could make angel food cupcakes – I just never thought about it I guess. Great idea!

Yes, there are probably a couple of factors that probably caused it now that you mention!! It is pretty warm and humid right now and and I probably didn’t whip the egg whites and sugar long enough either, I need a standing mixer!! Haha.. I didn’t even bother putting it in a piping bag because I knew it wouldn’t work. Anyway, I’ve got heaps of SMBC left over and it’s hardened up in the fridge, woohoo! Will make another batch of those yummy cupcakes and they will be extra beautiful this time, thanks so much Clara :)

Oh no! Runny frosting = no bueno! A couple things come to mind when you mention runny. How is the climate where you live? Warm, humid doesn’t help frosting set up. Did you whip the egg whites+sugar long enough? Before you add the butter, the egg white+sugar mixture needs to be stiff peaks. Does it come out piping bag runny? Maybe you have “warm” hands like me. Sometimes I have to chill my buttercream in the frig for a little while to let it set before I can pipe b/c my hands are so warm. Hope that helps!
