Been meaning to make these for ages,  Sesame seed /tahini flavoured buttercream  topped with sesame seeds on a soft vanilla sponge cupcake. Tastes  creamy and nutty very similar to peanut butter frosting and a nice change.

Topped with sesame seeds and pressed the  sesame seeds into one of the designs

Seeing lots of asian sweets use sesame seeds including the very addictive sesame snaps with caramel and those sesame caramel coated nuts! thought into a buttercream would go well seeing the paste isnt sweet and the Buttercream would mellow with the mix and it did!
