Kia Ora from New Zealand. My question: how long does the butter cream last? Does it have to be refrigerated after piping on the cake? If you want to make in advance can you freeze it? Is there any other long-lasting icing you can recommend ? Thank you.
Thanks for watching! You can store buttercream in the fridge for around 5rays, 3months in the freezer. Yes, you have to refrigerate after piping on the cake and I pipe flowers and freeze them in advance using air-tight container when I have many orders. You can use pastureised boxed egg whites instead of fresh egg whites for store longer. Hope it helps.
This cake is so beautiful. How did you get that deep shade of red? I'm about to create a Christmas cake for my family and I love that red you used for the poinsettias! Thanks!
Thanks for watching! 🙏😍 I used Christmas red from chef master. Started with rose pink (wilton) and add the red and let it sit for a while, and add more red, let it sit until you get the right red. Hope it helps! ☺️
@@Bloomthatcake thank you so much, it certainly does!!! Last question because I woke up wondering it lol, how did you get your icing to match you white chocolate ginache? I am thinking it's the natural basic color of buttercream and you used white, not off white candy melts? Sorry for the questions, I'm just in love with this cake :)
@@whittniestroud1193 I love questions and it's very good question!😍 My buttercream was a bit whiter than white chocolate ganache so I mixed little bit of white food coloring. Just start with little bit of white and compare to the buttercream color. Hope it helps!☺️
