#technical If we talk about techniques, Buttercream is a rather sweet and interesting topic.
Nowadays, it is one of the most used techniques in the field of pastry, it has become the protagonist of the cake, due to its delicious taste and texture when savoring.
What is buttercream?
In simple words, it is a sweet cream made from powdered sugar (also known as impalpable) and butter used for topping, filling and sticky base in cakes.
It is mainly made using two basic ingredients: butter and sugar. Another important element, although not vital, is milk, which gives it creaminess and softness. However, each pastry chef, depending on the flavor profile he wants to achieve, adds other ingredients such as dyes, as the result of the original mixture is a pale yellow.
The Buttercream technique was created in the United Kingdom, and that is why you will see it as the main ingredient in many Anglo-Saxon recipes.
Some techniques to make Buttercream with different shapes are:
Gradient pastels
Cakes decorated with buttercream are in trend. You can use a single color or make different shades to give a gradient effect.
Achieving this is very simple: first the cake is covered with the base tone, then cream of a more intense color is added to the base and another with a medium tone to the center. With the help of a spatula, the surface must be smoothed and excess cream removed. In this process, the colors are melted to achieve the desired effect.
Rope style
This decorating technique is mainly used in cupcakes, and to achieve it you need the help of a piping bag with a nozzle number 172 that gives it a different texture. The idea is to make circular movements open or closed as you wish.
