Camp coffee is excellent. that is what i always use.
8oz icing sugar
4oz butter
1tbsp water
1tbsp camp coffee
combine all ingredients in food mixer. makes a lovely coffee butter icing. Alternatively you could put chocolate butter icing in it instead substituting 2 0z icing sugar for 2 oz cocoa

I just make a basic buttercream (butter and icing sugar) and add about a tablespoon of very strong black coffee - about a heaped teaspoon of coffee powder/granules dissolved in a couple of tablespoons on hot water, then cooled. You can vary the strength of the coffee to taste.

camp coffee is excellent for your sponge flavour.but for filling do fresh whipped cream and tinned Mandarin or coffee butter cream and walnut.
hope this helps
