In these video tutorials, I normally use Bakels Premixes to save on time.
(Bakels is a bakery grade cake premix. Another great one is Allied Mills)

If you prefer to bake from scratch, I do have a range of awesome cake recipes here which convert to cupcake recipes very nicely too.

I use these butter based cakes above because they are sturdy under fondant and stable at room temperature, as are the muds.

AMERICAN BUTTERCREAM RECIPE:

RECIPE for this half vegetable frosting and half butter buttercream:
250 grams unsalted butter
250 grams vegetable shortening
900 grams to 1kg of icing sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Thanks guys for watching! This so far has been my favourite recipe for buttercream- although it doesn't work too well under fondant. Granted I have done it a few times, and while it has actually worked, it does produce more blemishes and makes it hard to achieve those perfect sharp edges. An all butter / crusting buttercream would be ideal under fondant, or a ganache.

I hope this has been useful for you guys! Let me know your thoughts if you try this, I would love to hear your feedback.


With love,
Rosie
