Can you please tell me why you use one over the other?

Is it about taste. technique etc?

Do you use them in the same way as far as how you frost the cake- crumb coat and then frost-

Thanks so much thumbs_up.gif

I personally like the taste of regular BC versus the crusting, also, the majority of my cakes are fondant covered so the crusting part is not as important to me. I do like to use crusting when i will not be using fondant though. It makes it soooooo much easier to smooth out using viva method. But that is just me.

Personally, I like the taste and texture of Mousseline Buttercream over crusting buttercream. The crusting seems too sweet. And Mousseline will hold up ti the humidity here. Hope this helps. icon_smile.gif

I don't use a whole lot of fondant to cover cakes so I LOVE the crusting BC.

I prefer the appearance of the crusting buttercream on cakes. I use the paper towel method to smooth my cakes and it just works better for me because of this reason.
Even when I cover a cake with fondant, I still use the crusting buttercream.
