What To Avoid While Making this Recipe?

  1. Avoid using cold butter, as it will make it difficult to achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
  2. Avoid overmixing the frosting, as this can cause it to become too runny or lose its fluffy texture.
  3. Be cautious when adding the powdered sugar, as adding too much can make the frosting too sweet.
  4. Make sure to dissolve the instant coffee granules completely in the heavy cream to avoid any gritty texture in the frosting.
  5. Avoid adding too much liquid (cream) at once, as it can make the frosting too loose. Add gradually until desired consistency is reached.
