Method

  • Beat together softened butter & icing sugar until very fluffy – scrape down
  • Beat until smooth
  • Add colour if desired or use it as it is

*WARNING*

  • If you have to beat the buttercream during use (as it firms up) be aware that the more you beat it the lighter it will go due to aeration.
  • It will be fine to use but may look like it’s a completely different colour.
  • WILL KEEP IN THE FRIDGE FOR 3 WEEKS
  • CAN BE FROZEN
