I've tried making this and it is easy and taste nice! i would recommend adding flavouring to it if u want to flavour the frosting to whatever flavour u like. but be sure to add the flavour when cooking it with the milk.(eg. vanilla extract, lemon juice, coffee, or any liquid flavouring) cuz if u add the liquid flavouring after u whip it with the butter, it will split and look grainy. because i had that happen to me before.
+Syazlina Aasim glad you liked it & I agree adding flavoring to the milk mixture is better.
And what about the color i mean wn should the color be mixed? Plz reply
Amounts for a 12 x13 inch cake please. Thank you
adunan ini untu satu kek ker
@@chino4477 rasanya haritu saya buat cukup untuk one batch of cupcakes. 18 cupcakes maybe..
Tried this out. Absolutely amazing! Perfect consistency and sweetness is just the right amount ❤
That recipe is absolutely amazing. I always feared the buttercream and I was nervous when I made this one but the result was just perfect! Especially 'cause it contains less sugar. Thanks a lot!!!!
Just made this frosting today for pistachio rose cake! Tasted amazing! The whole family loved it! Perfect texture perfect sweetness thank you soso much! Very stable too made pretty roses with it.
This was amazing!! i added some rose water to it. Love your work
This is the best buttercream recipe I have ever tried. Doing it for my first big cake after couple days. It is my go to buttercream.
+mehal3112 Glad you liked it :)
mine doesnt turn out well :(
Can this be use with fondant?
does this taste like flour ?
Thank you for this recipe. I have seen variations of this recipe that require you to first cook the flour and milk on the stove until thick and then add it to a mixture of butter and sugar that has been beaten together until fluffy. I like your version much better and can't wait to try it.
Excellent!!!! Thank you for sharing.
I tried making this too and doubled it to hopefully cover a 7 inch cake. It taste good and not overly sweet! Though I might consider reducing the sugar by a further 1/4 cup next time. Thanks so much for this easy recipe! Hope the frosting will be able to withstand humid Singapore 😄
I tried it today.. Came out really well..❤ Can't thank enough for this recipe 🙏🏻🤗
Your recipe is so well explained and turns out to be delicious . It's really not that sweet. My family and friends loved it. Thank you!
Hi, I have made this nefore but it was for a carrot cake. It was perfect and wonderful at first, but I like cream cheese frosting but it is too sweet so I just added some cream cheese and Volia!!! Perfect cream cheese frosting.
thanks a lot! tried this frosting last month and its just awesome. I have started using this in places where was using butter cream. thank you for sharing an awesome recipe :)
Kirthana Aditya Glad the recipe helped you :)
You are simply amazing😍😍
I love this recipe. But I do it a little different. I beat the butter alone, and then add the milk/flour cream. Sometimes I add 3/4 cups of cocoa powder in the cream (cook it all together), and then, after beating I add melted dark chocolate. It is divine. I also do with white chocolate, oreo crumbs... I have to test it with homemade caramel sauce and fresh raspberry puree, to see if it works. It can melt if it is REALLY hot (I know it, I live in Brazil), but it resists better than classic buttercream and it is really less sweet.
all those flavors sound amazing..need to give some of them a try :)
Just made this for a cake. It was perfect, thanks so much!
+LynxChan yay..thanks for sharing your feedback :)
Hi Lynx, can you coloir it and frost a big cake like american ??
Tried this. It’s so gooood. My son couldn’t stop licking the whisk 😇
this frosting is sooo good, and I like that it doesn't use 6 time more sugar than fat. and it's not too sweet. amazing
thank you so much..glad you liked it :)
Your recipes r amazing
Love this I tried it once and everyone kept wanting more 😋 love your video. • Question- I want to make it for a party so how long does the frosting last (doesn't melt) in a room ? Will it last 3 hours ? whats the best way to store the cream in the fridge?
I am impress with this buttercream, is a lot less sweet than traditional buttercream, is more like what you will find in a fine dining restaurant desert. Time and patients are ingredients here too so be very patient, is worth it! if your taste buds palettes are note ruin with the excess of sugar in everything at this part of the world, you will definitely love this buttercream. Thanks very much for posting and sharing Adilicious!
Hi Ann, I am glad you liked it..I also like this recipe for the fact that it is less sweet than your traditional buttercream.
This is the best icing .. Now it's the only icing I make and it's perfect ! Thank you so much
Glad to know you like it thanks for your feedback
I made this last night - easy peasy and tastes really good. I'm a little hesitant about using it for piping, but will give it a go. Thanks for the alternative!
+queenslanddiva glad you liked it! :)
Hi Aditi! I love your work, I've tried most of your recipes and I have no negative feedback. I've tried this recipe with whole milk, but I wanted to know if this would work with toned tetra pack milk? Thank you so much :D
super easy to make, and even more easy to eat! i give ya five stars!!!!
Thanks a lot for your lovely feedback
Like finally I’m not worried about so much sugar on buttercream. Thx

Chhavi Tiwari thank you so much!
this works amazing, i added more butter because i cant eat "normal sweet", still turns out so well. And I made it in the summer, lasts so long at room temperature. Just wondering if it can stay under fondant? Im planning to make a wedding cake with this buttercream
Thanks for an icing recipe made without eggs and a bit less of sugar and butter.
Really tasty😍😋will try it for sure. For how many days can I use this frosting after preparation?
Fantastic recipe! Thank you 😊👍
+Alicia Leong thanks a lot!

Hello! Great video :)
could you tell me how this holds up in hot weather?
U r ideas r awesome
Thanks 😊
I have made this recipe and it is just awesome!
I have a couple of questions lady.
1. Can I add white chocolate or dark chocolate to this recipe? What is the proportion for each?
2. Will it stand the heat of South India and take the rigour of travelling for an hour outside?
Thanks once again for the amazing recipe.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Love always dear
Thankyou!💜

I am glad you liked it 😊
Dude this video was made 5 years ago how did I not see it
awesome
A day after I frosted my cake the icing split and became grainy. And no I didn't wait until I added the butter to add the vanilla. I added the vanilla while it was cooking.
Hi, I am making this buttercream right now, and it's quite runny, but smells really good and tempting. I've put it in the freezer for a while and then will whip again. I only work with IMBC, but after watching this recipe I wanted to give it a try. Could the runny texture be because I added really soft butter? The milk mixture was room temp too...
i made it for my baby's 6 months old cake and everyone was complimenting the frosting :D thank you for sharing i am planning to make a cake for my baby's first birthday but i want to make it really white, what can i use to make it super white?
Hi.... thanks for this recipe...can I use this cream for transfer
sheets pics....pls reply
Can this frosting be used under fondant also please do reply. Thank you
i always use this as a filling for my cookies and cream cake.. and they love it.. but since the cake itself is sweet so instead of 1 cup sugar i use half of cup sugar.. then i add crushed oreo cookies.. must try!! i also use unsalted butter..
Sounds yum 😋
Btw..I used your recipe yesterday..and it's the recipe I've been looking for..not too sweet but tastes good. and at the same time can stay in room temperature for hours..thumbs up for this recipe..thank you!!
+Anna Clarizza i am glad you liked the recipe..thanks for sharing your feedback
So gorgeous Aditi! This is my go to frosting now. Also I wanted to ask , do you have any idea where to get the dr oetker vanilla in India? Thanks! ❤️
Glad you like the recipe.
Try amazon I have no idea
That looks amazing. :)
Could I use a whisk since I don't have an electric hand/stand mixer ?
Well it would take a lot of effort but its doable
Thanks a lot! I tried and thé taste is just amazing ! Thé best buttercream frosting recipie 😀 @adilicious
hi :) does the frosting melt if not kept in the fridge ?
hey that's a traditional frosting for red velvet cake right? it tastes awesome and the most important thing is that that it's less sweet but I didn't know that it's suitable for piping as well. good to know and thats a beautiful doll I must say. thanks for sharing such a lovely video.
+harshada adarkar Yes this frosting is traditionally used for red velvet cake. It does pipe well.
Would this be able to pipe cupcakes? Like, with the classic swirls and all? I made this with the thougbt that it could, but seeing how runny it is i kept it in the fridge (will pipe the day after...will it still work for cupcakes?
Great
+Adilicious, hi...is this buttercream stable enough to pipe rossetts, ruffles n other decoration? n does it melt easily? cuz where i am from, it is super hot here...n do i add cocoa powder during the cooking stage or after??? plz reply soon
super!!! ....
ASHISH MAHESHWARI Thanks :)
Osam
Sounds wonderful! Could I replace all purpose for cake flour , since cake flour is finer? Would it make a difference? Also, could we replace granulated sugar with another type such as coconut? Thanks.
+Diana Thompson Cake flour is not finer than all-purpose, it just has additives to lighten the density and stop some of the gluten protein development. Using cake flour might disrupt the thickness of the frosting.
Good day, I want to know how long will it stand, when the weather is warm?
Hi Aditi..your less sweet buttercream frosting looks amazing..wanted to know whether i can use stevia sugarfree powder instead of regular sugar? Pls reply
Never tried it actually
nice
Beautiful cake! Thanks for the demo on this , I’ve heard of this frosting but was unsure how long and to what thickness to cook the flour mixture.
You can always cook the mixture but dont undercook. Generally after the mixture comes to a boil I let it cook for another 3 minutes
by 7
Nice recipe
Thank u so much for sharing...
Just one problem when i try to dye mines.... It kinda splits..... Gets grainy.... Can u plz tell me what im doing wrong? Thank u
Adilicious, I wish I could give you multiple thumbs ups. Your video is simple, straightforward and devoid of all the rantings some people love to make. I love it. Cheers.
+Hindoo Cooper thank you so much for such a sweet comment 😊
Nice l like your recipe 😘
Thanks😊
Hi, really good. just the right amount of sweet, can it be used to cover a cake and pipe with
+Reyna Herrera this buttercream can surely be used to cover cakes and pipe as well
Hi aditi! I don’t know why I feel that I can taste the flour .. no matter how well I cook it.. can I try with cornstarch and see ? Will it work? When will you be doing your take on Swiss meringue butter cream? I miss your videos !
Can I add more milk if it thickens up while cooking?
Will it make any difference to its consistency?
Hi! Wanted to ask. I’m planning to use this in my red velvet cake in a jar. Can i add a little bit of cream cheese and can i store the cake in a jar(finished product) in the refrigerator? Hoping for you reply. Thank you!
Hi! You have thickened milk here and have added flour. Inspite of this, can we use milkmaid and butter to make frosting?
How much buttercream does this make? I am using it to frost cupcakes and am not sure how much this recipe makes
good
Hello would you mind telling me the minute that you cooked the milk ?
Hello would this work if we reduce sugar more to let’s say half cup ?
I love this recipe but use 1/2 c shortening and 1/2 cup butter.1-1/2 cups sugar and cream the sugar and butter together.
I made this butter cream is super easy n very tasty.. 10q
Great video. can i use powdered sugar instead of the granulated?
Adam Sabud thanks a lot..I would suggest you use granulated sugar as powdered sugar has cornstarch which would change the consistency.
Adilicious I thought about substituting a spoon of flour with cornstarch to make it hold better. I guess it's a bad idea.
Can i use it on ma bday cake n cupcake orders? Like in fridge hw long does it hold shape?thnks in advance 🥰
Hello, Thanks for sharing this recipe. Can I use it under fondant decorations? Will the fondant melt on it like it does on Whipped cream icing? Please reply as i am planning to use it on a birthday cake soon. Thanks in advance.
You can use it under fondant. I just hope its not too hot where you live
Hi can I use corn flour in replace of the all purpose flour?
One more question, the flour and milk must be in room temperature is it before boiling it on the stove?
hi..i made this butter cream 2day ..turns out good ..thanks for sharing d recipe..i just want to knw can we keep it in freezer for use in d long run?
it can be frozen in a zip-lock bag for up to two months. Allow to thaw in the fridge overnight, then allow to come to room temperature and mix until smooth and fluffy before use.
Looks great...can't tolerate the sickly sweet buttercream frosting.😆 I have some blueberry jam that I would like to use. At what stage should I add it? 😃 In the end or with the flour mixture?
At the end
Hi aditi.. I tried it and yes it's yumm. Luv u for ds
Thank you so much 😊
If I need to make butter cream for 30 cupcakes.. Can I double this quantity. Please let me know. I will wait
Which cream should be used for a tidy n firm decoration on cakes...buttercream or fresh whipped cream?
I have tried the american butter cream so many time but it's so sweet and a little bit grainy. so I was looking for a less sweet buttercream and I watched yours it's so good I always make this now
thanks a lot for sharing your feedback.
Shazia Tanveer was it grainy at all when you made it?
Actually I was not having an electric stand mixer I always tried the buttercream and it came out grainy
I tried this one as well but it does not looks like the buttercream shown in this picture
Wow. So, if I wanna make chocolate buttercream - should I melt the chocolate in the saucepan or directly add melted chocolate while adding the butter?
Btw, Great recipe. Going to try it. In an attempt to make lesser sweet buttercream, I always add half the icing sugar, which results in a runny buttercream, and I'm unable to pipe it. I'll definitely try this one. :)
Vishakha Phatnani thanks a lot..do try it out!If you want to make chocolate flavoured frosting just add some melted and cooled chocolate to the cooled flour milk mixture and then start adding in the butter.
You can even try adding nutella that also tastes great.
Oh wow. Would definitely try that!! Thanks and keep the awesome videos coming!
So when I am cooking the mixture at that time I need to add chocolate? And then I need to cling wrap the whole mixture right?
Adilicious okie
Very nice and detailed reciepe, would surely try
Neelu Maheshwari Do give a try!
hi again..your frosting is super stable..but can I use whipped cream instead of glour for added flavor?
i think you meant cream instead of milk..I have never tried it but i think it can work..let me know if you try.
Looks great! Does it crust (I would like to use this under fondant), and does it have to be refrigerated since it has milk. Should I substitute with water to solve that problem? Thanks!
+Michelle Oo I am afraid you cannot substitute milk with water.
+Adilicious Thanks for the reply! I'll use milk. Can I use it under fondant and leave it at room temperature for a day or two?
I had been wanting to try this recipe for a while. I made less sweet coffee buttercream and it was beautiful. Just so good! Thank you for sharing this recipe. It was really beautiful. I have a suggestion - could you do some videos about various egg replacements and how to use them? That would be very helpful!
Vishakha Phatnani Glad you tried it Vishakha..I would definitely try to make a video about egg replacements in the future..Thanks for the suggestion keep them coming :)
