FYI

This butter cream frosting is very versatile and can be used to make decorative frosting flowers or other embellishments. For buttercream frosting flowers, you will need the firmer frosting for which you add less whipping cream to the mixture. If the cream gets to warm it will be hard to work with so refrigerate as needed. If you want to use this butter cream as a spreadable layer, add more cream so it is smoother and creamier.

For a crumble free frosting, first coat the entire, cooled cake with a thin layer of frosting, then refrigerate until the frosting as hardened. Then apply your top layer. Start at the top center, working towards the outside edges, and then do the sides. To reduce streak marks made by the spatula, have a tall glass with ice water and paper towel handy. Dip the spatula in ice water often, and clean off icing to keep the spatula clean.

If you want to change the flavor of the buttercream, substitute the vanilla with your favorite substitute such as peppermint, artificial maple or any other flavor of your choice. You can also add gel color to this frosting. Do not use an alcohol-based food color.
