So far i have used it on cupcakes and a cake and i am in love.

Buttercream black and white icing cake.

If you are making a buttercream intended for writing use light corn syrup as your liquid. You can use more or less milk to change the consistency depending on if you want it softer to ice a cake or stiffer to pipe edging and detail from a bag. Thin consistency is best for cake frosting as well as piping lines and letters. So glad you like my white cake and the vanilla buttercream frosting.

When you add the black cocoa to your frosting it starts out as a deep brown. The icing will be white if you use white butter clear vanilla. Wrong i have used an entire container black color gel actually a few containers and still ended up with grey buttercream the more color you add the more you sacrifice taste only to have grey buttercream. If the frosting is too thin add more powdered sugar 1 4 cup at a time.

Add 2 teaspoons of liquid light corn syrup milk or water for each cup of buttercream frosting. Ingredients should be at room temperature before you start baking. When i first started cake decorating i thought that using only black color gel would get a beautiful black buttercream. For pure white frosting add up to 4 tablespoons of liquid.

Using the recipe below you ll have a bowl full of icing thick enough to hold its shape if piped yet soft enough to maintain that classic buttercream texture. You need to make sure your butter is fully softened before adding the powdered sugar to the butter so that the sugar will dissolve into the butter when you are mixing it. Also the oven should be pre heated. Make sure the cake is fully cooled before frosting it.

You should not be able to detect any texture from the powdered sugar after your frosting is made. Black cocoa powder can turn into a glossy black buttercream frosting perfect for decorating cakes and giving them an eye catching look.

When added to frosting and exposed to the air it turns a deep jet black. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. There is nothing better than a good buttercream frosting to top.
