no-fail buttercream frosting

Buttercream frosting has to be my all-time favorite frosting. It’s simple, it’s sweet, and it’s easy. It tastes good with any cake flavor, and it’s consistency is perfect for piping beautiful cakes and cupcakes.

Buttercream frosting recipes are a dime a dozen, but this buttercream frosting has a magic ingredient: bakery emulsion. For years a friend who is an expert baker who told me to use bakery emulsion in my frosting instead of typical vanilla extract. When I finally did it, I couldn’t believe what a difference it made. Something about it took the flavor of my frosting from great to outstanding, and I’ve never gone back to vanilla extract.


If you’re not familiar with bakery emulsion, it’s basically a different type of flavor extract. While typical flavor extracts are flavoring dissolved in alcohol, emulsion is based in water with an emulsifier. Water is a more neutral carrier than alcohol (so it’s great for buttercream frosting-or any frosting), and no alcohol also means that the flavor doesn’t burn off at high heats (so it’s great in baked goods).  I buy it at my local gourmet kitchen supply store, and a few people have told me they’ve seen select flavors at their local grocery store. Of course every flavor is available on Amazon.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup salted butter, room temperature
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Butter Vanilla Bakery Emulsion (or vanilla extract)
  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
