Hi @CakesbyLynz
Love your channel and am planning to do some cakes . I’m still learning! Can you please tell me how you transfer your cakes from the icing turntable to the fondant covered cake boards ? Some information on this would be really helpful as I’m unsure on how to do this and can’t find the information in your videos.
Recipe for perfect cupcakes everytime. Weigh the eggs first, whatever the weight is, use that weight to measure out the sugar, butter and flour (ensure to sift) then Dont add vanilla essence, just 2 tbsps of milk. Basically every ingredient the same weight- bar the milk minus v.essence. Cant go wrong. For a birthday cake, just double the weight of the flour, it just makes the cake alittle firmer.🙂
@@tashamariasoprano3239 Hi Tasha, I usually create my cakes on a glass cutting board which I place onto my turntable. I then transfer my cakes using a long offset spatula and a regular wider spatula. You can see me do this in alot of my cake tutorials including this one: th-cam.com/video/mPHS_bJIjuY/w-d-xo.html
I then stick the cake to my board with a small amount of buttercream or ganache.

Very nice
Never mind the colour - I’m marvelling at the skill of adding the icing sugar and mixing without a cloud of it going everywhere! My kitchen resembles the North Pole when I use icing sugar 😂
I cover my mixer with a wet tea towel! Helps a lot x
lol, it does depend on how much buttercream I have in my mixer. I started the mixer on the lowest level and only tuned it up when it started to combine. I often do forget and just turn it right up and have it everywhere, lol. If I was making more buttercream I do have a lid I can put on which helps the icing sugar flying out of the bowl. Its a great tip to add a towel over the top if you don't have a lid.
😂😂bless
I use Tate & Lyle which doesn’t cloud whereas Silver Spoon does 🥴
Lol
This video was awesome. Showing the comparisons was the extra step that took this video to the next level. I mean it’s super white. Thanks for sharing
I am so glad you liked it Teisha. I know it can sometimes be hard to see the differences, so I thought comparing them all might be useful. I'm so glad you liked it x
I knew purple would neutralize any yellow tones mainly due to cosmetology and having to memorize the color wheel but never thought on applying it to making white buttercream. Learn more everyday!
Same, i use a drop of purple food color (gel)
Exactly me right now! I’m a cosmetologist too & I’m almost so upset at myself for not even thinking about this before!
The amount of purple is only minute …otherwise it can turn slightly a tinge of grey.
It worked! My frosting is finally white I'm soooooo thrilled!!
Okay, I have learned so much from watching your tutorial. You are just the BEST teacher! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! 👍🏽🙏🏽
You couldn't possibly be any more adorable! Thank you for all the help you give to others ! ❤
I’ve been struggle with adjustment of yellowish buttercream into my desired color...now relieves the stress by this tutorial. Thank you so much for your video 😘😘😘..you’re savior 😊❤️
Thank you for an excellent and detailed presentation! I appreciate the way you demonstrated the different stages of the whipped buttercream and the remarkable results. I would have never thought to use a dash of purple to make the icing brighter. I also like the way you compared the finished product with other ingredients that are similar in color as a point of reference. Fantastic video!
Thanks you for this! I need to make white buttercream for cupcakes next weekend so perfect timing! I usually beat my butter for about 5 mins, will definitely leave it longer now! Xx
I’m amazed! Been decorating cakes for a lot of yrs. Didn’t know the purple trick!
You explain everything so well. Thanks
I AM SO LOVING YOUR VOICE AND YOUR KINDNESS ❤️
Just bought the frosting whitening can’t wait to decorate my cakes with white.
I’m totally mind blown 🤯 so cool. Thank you!
I'm blown away by the purple, I've never seen this trick before. Im also a hairdresser and Im mad at myself for not thinking of this 😂
How have I only just found your channel!! You are amazing and I’m learning new things that no one else has ever shown before if I need anything now I’m going straight to your channel! I’m making a wedding cake for my mum and you are helping me out loads!! Thank you 😊
Hi Catherine, I'm so pleased you have found the channel and you are finding the tutorials helpful. Good luck making your Mums wedding cake and I hope she has an amazing day x
Such a great and educational video! Thank you so much for making this🥰
This is VERY helpful! Not only for making white buttercream, but also for making blue and red buttercream because I always found the yellow undertone would throw the color off. Thanks so much, can’t wait to try it out!
Wow..absolutely brilliant! Thank you!!

Thank you for all the various tips I didn't know there were so many different ways to make it a pure white thank you for sharing and as always keep on caking
Hi Lorraine, You are so welcome. I loved seeing the different stages of whitening to compare the difference. Thank you so much for always watching x x
Amazing!!
Thank you for sharing your tips❤
You're such an awesome presenter. Thanks for the tip
Your video is awesome. I really enjoyed.
A+++. BEST cake teacher ever. 💚🎂🍰
I literally looked up "adding purple to cancel out yellow frosting" and boom. I love it. And I love how she showed us samples along the way, and then at the end gave us more things to compare it with ❤
I'm so pleased you enjoyed the tutorial and it was what you were looking for. I thought it was so important to compare the different stages so you can see how much difference it makes. I really hope this will be useful, for you making white buttercream.
Thank you so much, Linz! ❤🙏❤🌻
😱😱😱Thanks for sharing. I've learned so much from u🤗
Wow great tips 👌 your buttercream has a nice white color and it looks so light 😍
Thanks so much for this!
Wow. Thank You for this video
thanks Lynz, another great video. hope you are well x
Amazing! Thank you
I make my buttercream like this too! The only downside I have found from adding the purple is that if it's a really hot day and the butter warms up too much it can melt slightly and add a bit more yellow to the buttercream and having added the purple it gives this off green kind of colour
wow we learned a lot!!
Super useful! Thanks.
It’s very clear tutorial thank S a lot..

I'm so glad I found your channel.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for teacher appreciation
Wow!🤩
Very great tutorial
Great job
When you add "Color" to a frosting that starts out slightly Yellow you will definitely see a difference in your finished color. PINK will take on Coral, GREEN will go towards Blue, etc... etc...
Indeed, I tried to add a tiny violet to whiter the buttercream but when I added pink, it turned coral :((( What can I do to get a nice pink?
This was freaking awesome!!! I cannot wait to try it for a wedding cake I'm making in the next few weeks! ❤❤ Thank you 😊
Love this video. I'm definitely gonna try it. I've made buttercream twice, and it was so yellow
This was helpful. Thanks.

Glad you think so! Thank you so much for watching
I've never used shortening in my frosting before because I've always used the beating for a long time method. Works like wonders!!
Do you beat the butter first for a long time or beat them together for a long time?
@@Layemii I beat the butter for a long time then I also beat the frosting for a while but I beat the butter longer by itself
@@TeresasSweets Thanks. I want my buttercream whiter but I’m not able to buy any whitening agents rn
@@Layemii Whitening agents also do get pricy!
Also, you can add a dab of purple coloring to cancel the yellow tint
Hi Lynz, thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas. Could you do a video on how to make lasting butter cream as mine tend to melt in summer please. Thank you.
Thank you

Ive done this with my hair so many times! Purple or silver shampoo to get it from being reddish yellow to a nice blonde
Very informative video I wanted to make this buttercream receipe
I'm so glad you like it. I love this recipe, but sometimes you need it just a little bit lighter.
Purple 😮 wow this is just awesome. Thanks Lynz
