OKAY--the search engine here isn't working right for me & i really just don't have time to search--PLEASE HELP ME--I NEED WHITE BUTTERCREAM & it's off-white
is there anything i can do
Yup, I also suggest adding the tiniest amount of violet gel coloring, it cancels out the yellow and turns the buttercream white!
Hey Girl! I just sent you a pm! Using the violet trick and the whitener (if you have it) will get you close enough. Don't stress too much about it. People have to realize that if they want snow white they have to go with (imho) yucky all shortening bc!
The cake will be beautiful and you will do a great job!!!!!
this is what i use and i get a bright white everytime. I use Sweetex shortning, white margarine, something i got fromt he bakery called snow white (it makes the frosting more fluffy), water and butter, almond, and clear vanilla flavorings and of course powdered sugar. Then after i mix everything together i use the americolor white to make it a little more brighter white.
this may be a little off...but how in the world does purple make yellow, WHITE?????????
so interesting. ...i get cake, not science. LOL
see how you end up needing math and science and reading etc...just to make a cake? i used to think that was hogwash when people would say things like that when i was a teen, now i get the point!
Yellow and violet are on opposite sides of the color wheel so they cancel each other out making white! Or at least that's how I understand it!
