    I have watched so many, "how to get smooth buttercream " videos and you are the only person that's ever mentioned that buttercream develops air bubbles after sitting on the counter!! You have single-handedly saved my sanity! 😂 I thought I was doing something wrong. I was driving myself crazy and ready to quit making cakes. I love you! ❤️ Thank you, thank you and thank you! ❤

    I’ve been a hobby decorator for about 10 years. Took me a loooong time and practice to get smooth buttercream. Like anything else, doing something consistently, especially weekly, it gets easier. I only did about 10 or so cakes a year, and spaced apart. It took a long time for each cake. But eventually I got there. I learned that mixing/slapping technique, it really does remove a lot of air bubbles. Your tips were great. Even this 70 + year old grandma learned something. And I’ve watched a LOT of videos 🤪 The angle you hold your spatula on top I can already tell is much better than what I’ve been doing. And I realize I’ve been putting too much pressure with my scrapper. Too much bc coming off. And I’ve always applied my buttercream with a spatula. Resisted using a piping bag. But seeing the ease of application, and getting the same levelness of icing , absolutely trying. As I will the others. Thanks for the video and the tips and tricks. 👍👍

    This tutorial is great. I can clearly see little mistakes I've been making. Like not having the cake too cold/frozen :) to start and especially the movement when starting to smooth. Also, I need to slow down! Thanks again, looking forward to having another go at this.

    Hello dear. Would you reference what your opinion would be for the best type of butter cream for and indoor wedding, for small wedding cake for my daughter. The bottom layers will be foam dummy cake and then her cutting layer on top. She’s gluten and dairy free so it’s going to be made with plant based butter and or crisco mix. Will I need to refrigerate all night and bring it that morning to venue or would you suggest fondant and deliver it the night before. The guest will be served desserts and a sheet cake from the venue kitchen? Thanks for all the suggestions.

    • @GeorgiasCakes
      @GeorgiasCakes  Před rokem

      Unfortunately I don't work with dairy free buttercream so can't help you, there are many cake decorators out there who have great recipes though! Good luck!

    Freezing your cake and then adding another layer of buttercream can actually smooth it out. It will fill in the gaps of those air bubbles.

    Hi Georgia. I want to decorate a wedding cake with SMBC (thankyou for the cake decorating course which has taught me this), with vanilla paste for flavouring. I would like to keep it white, but will the vanilla paste specks show through? I want it to be as smooth and shiny as this one of yours! Wonderful! Thankyou

    • @Alex-px7lv
      @Alex-px7lv Před 10 měsíci

      Yes, the vanilla beans will show. Maybe fill with vanilla bean paste and reserve some for the final coating with vanilla extract
