Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together the shortening and corn syrup. Mix in the salt and vanilla flavoring, then gradually mix in the confectioners' sugar until it is a stiff dough. If you are using a stand mixer, use the dough hook attachment. Otherwise, knead by hand. If the dough is sticky, knead in more confectioners' sugar until it is smooth. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
  • To use, roll out on a clean surface that has been dusted with confectioners' sugar until it is 1/8 inch thick or thinner if you can. Drape over frosted and chilled cakes and smooth the sides down, or cut into strips to make bows and other decorations.

  • Watch the video tutorial above, review the troubleshooting tips, and read the recipe in full before beginning. Make sure all the tools you are using are completely cleaned, dried, and grease-free. A quick wipe with a little lemon juice or white vinegar is very helpful.
  • If you haven’t done so yet, separate the eggs first. Separate 1 egg white in a small bowl, then place the egg white in your heatproof mixing bowl. Repeat with the remaining egg whites. This way, if a yolk breaks in one of them, you don’t waste the whole batch.
  • Whisk sugar into the egg whites, then set the bowl over a saucepan filled with just two inches of simmering water over medium heat. Do not let the bottom of the egg whites bowl touch the water. Whisk the whites and sugar constantly until sugar is dissolved and mixture has thinned out, about 4 minutes. The mixture will be thick and tacky at first, then thin out and be frothy white on top. To test that it’s ready, you can use your finger or an instant read thermometer. Lightly and quickly dip your finger (it’s very hot, be careful) and rub the mixture between your thumb and finger. You shouldn’t feel any sugar granules. If using a thermometer, the temperature should read 160°F (71°C).
  • No need to let it cool down to start this next step– it’s important to begin mixing while it is still warm. Transfer mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (if you aren’t already using the metal bowl that comes with it). You can use a hand mixer instead, but this step takes awhile and your arm tires quickly. On medium-high speed, beat the mixture until stiff glossy peaks form and the meringue is no longer warm to the touch, at least 10-15 minutes. On particularly humid days, this has taken me up to 17-18 minutes. If it’s still not reaching stiff peaks, stop the mixer, place the bowl–uncovered–in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, then return to the mixer and continue beating until stiff peaks form. (This has always worked for me when it’s taking forever to reach stiff peaks.)

THE RIGHT WAY TO USE BUTTERCREAM UNDER FONDANT | CRAFTSY

From craftsy.com
Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
  • Prepare the cake. If your cake’s edges are on the crisp side, it’s a good idea to trim down to the soft fluffy cake interior before crumb coating.
  • Layer on the buttercream crumb coat. Scoop a few cups of buttercream into a smaller bowl and reserve the remainder for your final coat. Working from a small bowl will prevent you from contaminating the whole batch of buttercream with little speckles of cake crumbs.
  • Add a thicker coat. Working from the clean bowl, apply a thicker finishing layer of buttercream. You want to apply enough buttercream so that no solid portions of cake show through, but not as much as you would if you were leaving this as your finished cake.
  • Shave the cake. Yes, you read that correctly! This is my own personal tip that has worked for me for years. It’s a real game-changer and has helped me to achieve smoother cakes with sharper edges.
  • Get rolling. As soon as your cake is ready to go, get that fondant moving. Here are some instructions for rolling out fondant and covering your cake.

  • If you're using a mixer, set it on low speed so the icing doesn't become too aerated., Add the melted coating to the sugar mixture, then add the vanilla and the coloring (if you're using it).
  • If the mixture is too thick to pour, reheat it briefly over low heat, and stir in 1 to 3 tablespoons additional water.
