Cheesecake Covered In Frosting????????????
Decorating By KayMc Updated 28 Sep 2010 , 12:38pm by KayMc
I was watching 'Amazing Wedding Cakes', and they're covering a cheesecake in buttercream. Now, I am a huge fan of good quality cheesecake. I have a to-die-for cheesecake recipe that I've made for years. I cannot imagine ruining that wonderful cheesecake taste with frosting of any sort. That is so nasty! Has anyone eaten this, or seen it? YUKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am watching that as well. But I assumed she was just putting a layer of icing on it since she is planning on covering the cheesecake with fondant! Will fondant stay put on just cheesecake?!? Either way... fondant covered cheesecake sounds interesting. ![]()
Uhmmmmmmm.........
Ewwwwwww?!?!?!?!?
Why ruin a perfectly good cheesecake... Its kinda like mixing two similar flavors that just don't go together.... like oranges and chocolate.. both sweet, but you dont want to eat them together! Now I know I'm going to get responses saying that there are those chocolate oranges that you can buy.... yuck! cant mix 2 kinds of sweet... It's just wrong! LOL
I've seen this. I was researching how to fancify cheesecakes for a wedding and this is pretty common. I couldn't even begin to imagine what it would taste like and agree it sounds pretty gross. I came up with idea to surround the cake with a chocolate transfer, possibly do a circle on top too, or arrange irregularly broken chocolate with chocolate transfer designs on it. It would be nice and compliment the cheesecake. Unfortunately, I didn't have time. But yeah, can't imagine buttercream on cheesecake. Seems weird to me.
Yup! I too have a great Cheesecake recipe and had to make 2 grooms cakes out of them. Then I had to cover them with a cream cheese buttercream, and a fondant "G" for Greenbay Packers. It looked good, but at the reception, I only ate the cheesecake and not the frosting.
One of my friends covered one of her cheesecakes in fondant...it was a NY style cheesecake. She torted it, filled it with strawberries and whipped cream and covered it with a thin layer of fondant. It worked for her...
I couldnt careless what they are putting on that cake... the important thing here is... you have a cheesecake recipe that is wonderful....and you would SO like to share it with me.. right?? (insert puppy dog eyes here...and pretty pleazzzzeees here... a few eye batting of the puppy eyes here... a whimper here... another pretty pppppllllllllleeeeeeaaaaasssee here. ![]()
back to the buttercream and fondant cheesecake thing.. EEEEWWWEEEEE... gaggg..gaggg.. tiny throw up in mouth.. gaggg.. gaggg..
In a catalog I seen a cheesecake covered in white chocolate and decorated like a gift, it was super cute. I think it was modeling chocolate that it was covered in. It was an 8in square cheesecake and it was $105 available for shipping. They had cupcakes and all kinds of goodies available for shipping too.
The puppy cake in my photos are two cheesecakes layered and stacked. I covered them in White Chocolate Cream Cheese frosting and it tasted great!. The frosting wasnt sweet and it actually complimented the cheesecake flavor. I was worried because the cheesecake is so good, I didnt want to ruin it, but it worked. I have heard of covering them in modeling chocolate, but havent tried it as of yet.
I have heard of it being done and hope to someday give it a try. This is the recipe that Kathyf uses to cover her cheesecakes and from what I've seen everything she makes is really good. 1 cup butter
1/2 cup Crisco
16 oz. cream cheese
3 1/2 lbs powdered sugar
1 T vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
Mix on low speed for a couple of minutes.
If you use clear vanilla in both the color will be a perfect match for <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com
ffice:smarttags" />Wilton's buttercream recipe. I use this to frost cheesecakes
when a couple wants part regular cake and part cheesecake for the tiers.
This makes a fairly stiff icing. For a softer one you can use 3 lbs. of powdered sugar.

Turn off oven, open door, and let cake cool in oven for 30 min. Then, remove cake from oven. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In bowl, mix:
1 pint sour cream, 2 Tbsp sugar, 1/4 tsp vanilla. Mix and spread over cake. Bake at 450 for 5 minutes. Cool to room temp, then put in fridge for 24 hrs before eating. Do not eat this on same day it's made. It must be in fridge for 24 hrs before eating. Flavors need to develop and meld.
I've seen cheesecakes covered in chocolate, at Neiman Marcus. Don't mind the prices!
