    I work at a Safeway affiliate store here in the states. Our branch actually makes the buttercream with buttercream base (sugars and flavorings pre-added) and real butter. We make over 100 lbs at a time (90 lbs of base + 10 lbs butter + 4 lbs of water). Personally I think it tastes pretty good but it ultimately depends one who is making the buttercream, how long they are mixing it, and how much water is being added. That being said, our 2 sister store branches now use a premade buttercream - it tastes similar to the frosting in the can in my opinion, super sweet and soft. The cake that you have in your video looks like non-dairy whip cream, which is quite fluffy, easy to work with, and does not crust like buttercream. We typically use it for our ice cream cakes or upon special request. It's kind of like cool whip. We also offer real whip cream icing that is pre-sweetened for bakery use.

      There's other videos like this but she's the only one who has used the same icing which is such a great tutorial. If you aren't a baker then you probably aren't great at making icing either. So you're right, her concept is great.

    It's called "Better Creme" and it's made by Brach's. It's basically Crisco and corn syrup (or that's my understanding)

    Hey friend the icing looks like "vanilla topping" you can also add a small amount of milk or water to bring it back to what it used to be before . It also comes in chocolate, it looks like super white whipped cream, but don't contain any cream at all

    I always like watching these transformation videos! They're lots of fun! Just wondering, would it be possible to air brush the wafer paper before you cut the small flowers or would that make the wafer paper curl up too much?

    • @SweetDreamsBakeShoppe
      @SweetDreamsBakeShoppe  3 роки тому

      If you’re really really light with it you could probably do it, but there’s always the risk of it curling up a bit which is why I usually do it after. Petal dust is also a great way to colour it!
