| Mother's Day Buttercream Rose Cupcake Bouquet |
Stay tuned, I will be posting a how-to-tutorial on this Cupcake Bouquet this week.
All you need to make these pretty gumpaste roses is a small round cutter. I thin the edges of the petals between my fingers, no need for ball tools or forming mats.

Hi Nicole. I make my buttercream from:
ReplyDelete250 grams unsalted butter
6 to 8 cups confectioners sugar/icing mixture
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1 tablespoon cream of tar tar (this helps to stabilise the buttercream and it will crust more easily)
Beat the (room temperature) butter with an electric mixer until pale, add 2 cups confectioners sugar, 1 tablespoon milk and the cream of tar tar & vanilla. Beat thoroughly. Alternate confectioners sugar and milk, beating in 2 cups of sugar at a time until all sugar is used and you are happy with the consistency.
If buttercream is too soft, refrigerate it for 5 minutes before piping.
Hope this helps!
Elise
bonjour Elise je n'est pas tout compris a votre recette c'est quoi le (crème de 'goudron',est pâte de 'haricots' de vanille)

est les haricots c 'est des legumes.
je pense que les mots change quand on les traduit merci encore .
je suis contente de vous ecrire d'aussi loint a bientot nicole(fance)
Hi Nicole,
ReplyDeleteHere is an explanation of Cream of Tartar, also known as "salt of tartaric acid": Cream of Tartar can be used to give a creamier texture to sugary things like cake frosting and to stabilize and increase the volume of beaten egg whites.
Use vanilla extract to flavour your buttercream. It is OK to omit the Cream of Tartar, the buttercream will be fine.
Hope this helps!
Elise
