Use this to know what frosting to make (part 2)

part 1 of this video is here: youtube.com/shorts/n20kpR5zFXQ My guide, with these graphs and explanations, along with recipes is here: www.sugarologie.com/recipes/buttercream-comparison

You are a damn frosting scientist!

Wonderful! Ermine is definitely my go-to frosting. So easy to make, not too sweet of too “slick” like some of the egg-based ones. Thank you! Love your channel!

I have physical disabilities, and something to note is that ermine is deceptively physical to make, even with a stand mixer. There is lots of scraping and stirring in the pot with the flour paste while cooking it, which can take a while. Personally I’d say sugar syrups are easier, but this is a great and informative chart! Thanks

Your no dye black buttercream is amazing!

I made a little test batch of the black buttercream and it kicks ass! I thought you might want to know though: the volume/mass ratio for the 1-cup recipe on your website doesn't line up with the 3-cup and 4.5-cup recipes. The 1-cup says "1/3 cup (53g) water" but 1/3 cup water is about 80g. I made it using the volume measurement (generally not the right choice I know) and it turned out wonderful but I wonder if it might be a bit different if I used weight instead. I think 53g water would translate to about 1/4 cup. Good stuff tho!

Me waiting patiently for your sugarologie buttercreams to be added to the cakeculator 😊🤞🙏

Taste wise, what is your favorite icing?

Pretty random comment but I love your voice, it’s very nice on the ears for me :) Love your content too, probably the most reliable baking channel out there and teaches you some science in the process

I always have a hard time making frostings for my siblings birthday cakes and you've helped me so much! I will use this one day thank you 💖

I just want to use as less butter as possible 😂💘

That black buttercream will never not blow my mind. It's genuinely next-level innovative.

These tools are ridiculously helpful for a persnickety person like myself. I'm actually using your cakeulator to make cupcakes for this weekend. I'm in love! As always, thank you for your research and dedication!

Tell me you’re an engineer without telling me you’re an engineer

A wizard 😍

It would be so awesome if the graph was offered on your website along with all the results uncovered. Happy Easter (Resurrection Day)!

have you ever considered creating a peanut butter buttercream, that has a good balance of peanut butter flavor while remaining pipeable/spreadable? maybe i'm the only person on earth who loves peanut butter so much, and that's why no good recipes exist... but i would love to see you tackle it!

Do you ever do combos? I make a half ermine, half cream cheese/butter/sugar for a cream cheese frosting that holds up to hot weather and isn't too sweet. It's great on hummingbird, spice, apple, or carrot cake.

I’m trying out your black buttercream this week. Wish me luck!

I'm not sure what the one my mom makes is. She uses icing sugar, crisco, a bit of flavoring, water, and maybe some meringue powder
