I normally am not a fan of frosting but this one was amazing. Everyone at my party loved it and want me to make it for every event now. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe!

In reply to Penny.

Hi Penny! It sure can! ☺️ We haven’t tried the cotton candy extract, so we can’t say for sure how potent it would be or how much to add though.

Hi there!
Could this recipe be flavored with any flavoring…say cotton candy perhaps? Would I do a tsp of vanilla and a tsp of cotton candy?

Is this frosting stiff enough to make roses on a cake?

I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! It’s the perfect pairing for the vanilla cake. 🙂

Used this with your vanilla cake recipe and it was delicious! Just enough frosting to cover the whole cake. Will be using again in the future!

In reply to Megan Mollett.

Thank you Megan! Most powdered sugars are gluten free so yes this would be a gluten free recipe. 🙂

Love all of your recipes. Would you consider this “gluten free” ?

Hi Michele! The icing layer may be a little bit thin but it should work. 🙂

Thanks for this recipe! It’s so sweet, creamy, delicious and it pipes beautifully! It’s one of my third favourite frosting.( My favorite is your swiss meringue buttercream😋)

What do you do to this buttercream recipe to make it pourable for Petit Fours?

In reply to Van.

Hi Van! They’re honestly very very similar. This one (buttercream) is closer to a true/standard American buttercream than the vanilla frosting. This one is sweeter, crusts a bit better, and is firmer than the vanilla frosting. I hope that helps!
