Everytime, I make a kids' cake I end up with buttercream in all the colours of the rainbow. I could make cupcakes and frost them with the different coloured buttercream. Knowing my luck I would have just enough pink buttercream for one cupcake and then my daughters would end up fighting over it. To solve that problem, I just mix them all together and yes I end up with buttercream that looks totally unappetizing. Then I add melted chocolate to it and turn it into chocolate buttercream. Now everyone's happy :)

ReplyDeleteRandom question for you, since you seem so knowledgeable regarding buttercream, how long can I keep shortening based buttercream, if it's in the refridgerator?
ReplyDeletealso, how long can a butter based buttercream stay outside of the fridge?
