Buttercream
the recipe

Hi!

In this class, I’m going to teach you my signature buttercream recipe – the one I use again and again in all my cakes – from assembling and filling to colour and decorating.

When I started baking, I had so many doubts and fears around buttercream that I wanted to create a recipe that felt easy for beginners and completely foolproof. You’ll learn a buttercream that doesn’t split, can’t be overmixed, is made using whole eggs (because I can’t bear wasting yolks), and where the eggs are pasteurised during preparation: a little dream come true.

Get ready to fall in love.

See you in class!
