      A customer has asked me for a German chocolate cake but with buttercream frosting instead of the coconut and pecan frosting. Never heard of such a thing but I’m using this recipe for the cake batter. Looks delicious!

    I have made German chocolate cake for 30 plus years and this recipe is by far the best! I made both icings and everyone thought it was delicious! The SMBC is so good. My new favorite all around!

    I've added melted chocolate to your easy buttercream & it works great 👍🏻Also you mentioned using browned butter & trust me it's so worth it! I brown my butter, & toast both my pecans & coconut. It's TO DIE FOR. I even went super EXTRA once and used toasted sugar in the custard 😂 Thanks for all of your great recipes & tips!

    Do you notice a difference in mixing quality between the plastic and stainless steel bowls? If I were to buy a Bosch would you suggest the stainless steel over the plastic? I notice you sometimes go back and forth between the two. Is it good to have both? Thanks! Your vids are fantastic and your recipes are a hit whenever I try them out.

    Hey, Sugar Geek, aka, Liz. In your Italian Buttercream frosting where you have 8 oz of egg whites but then in (114g)... Did you mean 8 oz or 4 oz? Just wondering... The frosting and the cake looks amazing. Thanks.

    • @SugarGeekShow
      @SugarGeekShow  3 роки тому +1

      Oh no! Did you use fresh egg whites or pasteurized? I find fresh eggs easier to whip into meringue. And are you using a metal bowl or a plastic one to mix? Sometimes leftover grease or fat can hang on to a plastic bowl, and that can prohibit your meringue from whipping to stiff peaks. So I always clean my bowl and whisks with a little white vinegar before making SMBC.

    • @sacredtendrils7159
      @sacredtendrils7159 3 роки тому

      @@SugarGeekShow I figured it out. I used the store bought egg whites. And I think that was the problem. I tried again with reg egg whites and it was perfect. Thank u for sharing ur recipes they come out perfect every time. Well except this time but that was totally my fault 😂

    I used to never like German chocolate cake (was never a coconut fan), but they say your tastes change as you get older. When my cousin and her boyfriend moved into a house together, I offered to make them a cake, and they wanted German Chocolate cupcakes. Tried it again, and OMG. Yeah. It's a good one. Never be afraid of trying anything again that you didn't like as a kid.

    My God! You are a Beautiful woman! I love that you don't have a ton of makeup on, ( you don't need it ) and that your just so delightful. That cake looks so amazing, I wish I could have a piece of it.
    The internet needs more women like you on here to balance out the over glammed, under dressed, show girls. You did a fantastic job, Thank you for this. P.S. Your husband is a lucky man!!!
