Do you remember back in the day when the buttercream use crust over? Like the roses was hard but when u eat it than it would melt in your mouth… do u know how to crust over the frosting ? American buttercream? With Walmart shortening

I make buttercream in my mixer. Then, I put it in my food processor. The food processor takes about 95% of the air bubbles out of my buttercream. That really helps me avoid a lot of air bubbles.

I watch her videos to relax sometimes. End of a long hard day, I will Beng watch a bunch of her videos to relax. Or when I am stumped on a order, I don't always watch videos relate to what I am making, that I am stumped on. Most the time, it is completely different then what I am working on. I find she helps clear my head, kinda like wiping the slate clean or starting with a New Paper.... A Brain Reset if ya will! Lol

I wanted to have fun learning a new skill and now I have. Perhaps I can learn more in the future to perfect my style,
