Lovely piece and excited to try this recipe. Do you think it will still turn out well if I omit the basil? (Though I will have to try another time!)

Thank you,

Emma

In reply to Carolyn Wright.

Hi Carolyn – Thanks so much for the nice words. I’ve never tried substituting gluten free flour here. The flour helps thicken the buttercream, so it would have to be a gluten free flour that could thicken and not get gummy. I’ve heard King Arthur Flour makes a good gluten flour mix that can be substituted in gravy, so it might work here? Let me know if you try anything!

I’m so inspired by your blog. Thank you for sharing your refreshing point of view on life and food. Do you know if gluten free flour would work for the Blackberry Basil Buttercream Frosting? Thank you in advance.

This was a very beautiful post and brings up a lot of emotions within me. I’m a newly married, (new) homeowner and have moved back to where I grew up and I am continually finding and rediscovering my roots and what home and family means to me. I come from farming roots and have been steadily rebuilding these “skills”, dreaming big, and trying to make it happen. This post struck me and I am so very glad for it. Thank you. Plus, can’t wait to try this recipe!! Thank you.

Hi Sarah
A very thoughtful post – thank you for that and also for the cupcakes! The librarian in me can’t help but ask – have you tried using interlibrary-loan for the 3rd volume? Your local public library might be able to help.
