Has anyone ever tried to use vanilla pudding in their favorite buttercream icing recipe? I know most people are looking for a snow white icing, but what if you were going for flavor instead.
I was thinking of using a couple pf pudding cups in my icing, or try dry pudding mix, but I was afraid it would be dry or gritty tasting. Has anyone done this??
I use the WASC all the time, love it, but wanted a nice smooth icing just for eating to go with it.

I use white chocolate pudding in buttercream all the time. Only use about 2 tablespoons in a 3 cup recipe and it won't be gritty.

thanks Beth, is that liquid (pudding cups) or the powder. I live in Canada and we do not have White Chocolate pudding here.

Let me know what you use and how and I will try our Jello Vanilla,

Thanks

I use the powder and only a couple of Tablespoons per 3 cup batch of buttercream. I would think the liquid pudding cups would be fine, but, you'll need to watch your liquid/dry ratio. I'd probably only use a couple of Tablespoons of the liquid as well at first.

adamsgama I also live in Canada, not sure where you are but if you have a superstore they sell white chocolate pudding powder.

I live in Toronto and we do have (Loblaw's) superstores around me. I will look for them next time I shop.
Thank you both and I will let you know how the icing turns out.

I live in Windsor and it's The Real Canadian Superstore not sure if it's the same as yours but have a look! Good Luck.

would also like to know how this turns out.

I throw dry pudding in mine all the time. Especially chocolate. Tastes yummy! Just like others said though, you have to adjust liquids or it will be dry and thick.
