In this video I'll be showing you how to use purple gel colour to achieve a white buttercream frosting! Often buttercream has a yellow tinge or undertone to it because of the amount of butter in the frosting, and to get it nice and white using only white gel or powdered colour, can be a mission and you have to use sooo much gel colour! Because purple is opposite to yellow on the colour wheel, purple actually cancels out yellow tones, so by simply using a small amount of purple gel colour, you can achieve a much whiter buttercream frosting!

This reminds me of my grandmother’s practice of using “bluing” liquid as a laundry additive to keep white clothes from looking yellow. Brilliant! :)

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Wowow never knew people used this for laundry too! Sounds genius! :D

@veenawilson979 Год назад

Oh yes , Indians have Ujala (blue liquid) for brightening white clothes !

@mariamomer7875 Год назад

@@veenawilson979 Woow it's amazing to know that as we have it too in Sudan 🇸🇩 we call it zahra, we usually use it for the traditional men garments called Jalabia to make it sparkly white.

This is my favorite whitening method! I remember first hearing it and being hesitant because I feared turning the icing purple 😂

Yes! This is exactly what I do because I hate dumping so much White coloring into Buttercream. It's a bit more effort but much less waste

Can you overmix buttercream like you can with whipped cream? Because thats always my issue

@zeenafiroze Год назад

Asak! Tried out your vanilla cake recipe with vanilla buttercream frosting.. the best cake I've ever made, everyone in my family loved it. Unfortunately, my buttercream tasted like raw butter 🥲

@CakesbyMK Год назад

Wassalaam! So so happy to hear you enjoyed the vanilla cake recipe :D in terms of the frosting - sorry it didn't quite turn out how you'd hoped! It shouldn't taste like butter, so maybe just double check the quantities of the ingredients but also remember to whip the butter for a long time so it becomes light and airy :D

@zeenafiroze Год назад

@@CakesbyMK will try that

@crytical1237 2 года назад

I don’t have purple but I have red and blue. Do you think that would work.

@MsBBine 2 года назад

@ChickenPermission617 2 года назад

If you tried it, I’d mix a little of the blue and a little of the red first, THEN add to the icing. Only because when you try to mix the separate colors in the icing, it makes it gray. But I myself haven’t tried that yet so if you do, give an update please :)

Hey, can i ask u something quickly… when making a chocolate cake do i need two butter cream fr filling n fr the cover of my desired colour? If it’s vanilla can i make vanilla buttercream n the divide it so i can add colour to the other one?

@dianemn8978 Год назад

Hello MK! Happy new year! What is your favorite food coloring brand? And a second question: would you recommend microwaving the frosting to make it even whiter or that trick will not work in this case? Thank you and congrats on great content!

@lua_s 5 месяцев назад

hii! this was so enlightening! would this work with white chocolate ganache too?

@Elyse27 Год назад

See, I read to do this but with blue. Tried it on a birthday cake for my bf but it turned the frosting green. Which makes sense, because yellow plus blue = green, not white. So why would purple not turn the frosting brown, which is what you get when you mix yellow and purple.

@KaoChanOfTheBreadClub 3 месяца назад

I did this. It was a nice shade of white on the day I made my cake. Then, on my nephew's birthday, the icing looked gray-ish purple. It was not bad, but not the white it was before.

@louiselemon9717 2 года назад

Hi MK, I pray all is well. Once you have it white, can you color it to your preference?

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Hi Louise! I am well thanks and hope you are too :) And yes you can totally colour it once it's white. You can also colour it initially when its still a bit yellow, but I do find colours work better when you get the frosting whiter first :)

@Dolcevita_bakes 2 года назад

Very interesting… I bake too and the way I get very white butter cream is to do a hybrid of a bit if shortening. I use 2 sticks of butter (1 cup) to 1/2 cup shortening and whip whip whip and I get white butter cream and it tastes great. I also use vegan butter.. but it tastes just like regular butter. You can’t tell the difference. I also use clear vanilla extract never the dark kind

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Thanks for the great tips! :D Yup, whipping is so so important! Here in NZ our butter is soooo yellow so you really have to whip it well to get most of the yellow gone xD

@jjaa6157 Год назад

I use plant butter, and they use avocado oil or olive oil. You can't tell the difference.

@prabhaj2039 Год назад

Why can’t we use white gel Color?

@tmt9794 2 года назад

How do we keep buttercream soft during winter weather?

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Hmmm when it's cold here in NZ, then I make sure I take the cake out of the fridge at least a few hours before it's going to be eaten so that the buttercream comes to room temp. It also helps if you have a temp controlled room so it's not too cold. I wouldn't amend the recipe though otherwise this can affect the taste and stability of the buttercream :)

Won't the buttercream have many holes from too much mixing ?

@CakesbyMK 2 года назад

Good question! If you find your buttercream has too many air bubbles, simply mix it on a low speed at the end for 5-10 minutes and this will help get rid of the large air bubbles while still maintaining the colour :)
