Very nice, creamy, shining and pinkish buttercream.
These few days are very hot, so once my buttercream is done, I keep in the fridge for 5-10 minutes (Not till become harden). On the other hand, I try to get my piping tools.
The chilled buttercream texture is firm and consistent during piping process. Pipe any shape you like.
Try this simple buttercream first, it is not that hard actually. Why don't spend sometime with your kids during this school holiday break. Get them to put on their own topping like marshmallow, chocolate chips, M&M and any type of sprinkles. I'm sure your kids are excited about it.
