"Excited to be collaborating with @theFeedfeed and @NielsenMassey on these Vanilla Lemon Donuts with Buttercream Flowers! When my taste tester tasted these lemon donuts, he said, “These would be perfect for Summer; they are light and lemony.” That is exactly what I was going for in these Vanilla Lemon Donuts made with Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract and Pure Lemon Extract. I was so excited to work with them, knowing they are family owned and only produce the absolute best premium Vanilla Extracts. During this uncertain time, they have started offering videos to help you master some of basic baking skills at BetterYourBake.com. They asked me to give their “How to Make Buttercream Flowers” tip a try, and my delicious lemon donuts were the proud owners of beautiful little roses made using the techniques shared in their video. #BetterYourBake #NielsenMasseyInspires #feedfeed #sponsored #nielsenmasseyvanillas #buttercreamflowers #donuts #bakeddonuts #beautifuldonuts #buttercream #buttercreamflorals"
