This is essential to achieve a smooth consistency. It is important that all of the icing sugar is fully incorporated into the butter.
Mix on low speed when adding the icing sugar, then increase the speed. Add the icing sugar (confectioner’s/powdered sugar) in quarters or four batches.(This is the secret to this perfect buttercream) It is very important that the butter is beaten until it changes colour to a very pale almost white or ivory colour. Beat the butter again (3rd time) from low to medium to the highest speed for a few minutes.Continue to mix and increase the speed of the mixer to the highest speed.Stop the mixer and scrape the bowl well.Beat the butter on low to medium speed, then increase to the highest speed.Add soft (not melted) salted butter into the mixer bowl and attach the paddle attachment.
LOW SUGAR VANILLA FROSTING RECIPE FULL
Continue to read on and watch my full Step by Step Silky Buttercream Recipe video tutorial below and read along with the full written recipe below. The secret lies in the way I make this buttercream from the moment the butter is placed into the mixer bowl. Now, you may wonder how can this simple buttercream be silky, stable, and taste delicious. It is stable in warm weather and perfect for those making it in cold winters where my Smooth Buttercream has been too stiff and thick to work with. This ratio of ingredients makes this buttercream a soft to medium consistency frosting. A ratio of 1:1 of salted butter to icing sugar or powdered confectioner’s sugar and flavouring of choice.
This silky buttercream only needs three key ingredients typically found in a traditional American Buttercream. This makes it perfect for those wanting a smooth frosting. You will find that this buttercream also doesn’t crust as much as a regular buttercream or even crust at all. It also pipes beautifully and because of its silky texture it’s perfect for frosting a smooth cake. My Silky Buttercream has fifty percent less sugar than my regular Smooth Buttercream, which makes it a lot less sweet and hardly gritty in texture. Nonetheless, it can be very sweet in flavour and gritty in texture, two qualities which can sometimes be disliked by some. It also tastes amazing when combined with just about any flavour. It’s very simple to make and colours beautifully in the brightest of shades you can find. American buttercream is possibly the most widely used frosting for cake decorating.
