Frozen Buttercream Transfer Howto

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

In my experience, using Crisco etc prevents freezing...it's the butter that allows the transfer to freeze completely.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@Kezzluvsthewantedx the buttercream recipe i use is a butter, milk, icing sugar and vanilla one...pretty typical. i have not left any FBT in the freezer for longer than an hour, as most of the cakes that i have done this way are due the same day, or the next.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

If you don't have a transparency paper, just use a piece of wax paper, but make sure you flip the image on your computer before you print it out. If you want to look for transparency paper, check out any office supply store for them.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@SARAAMOTIWALA the image was photocopied onto a transparency and then wax paper is put on top of that. ...that way you can see through it to your image below. Transparency paper can be found at any paper supply store.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

yes, you sure can! you can find the recipe for both buttercream and cream cheese icings on our channel

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@appleliciousify125 Yes … You can either use a transparency to-do this or your printer may have a mirror option in its settings.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@Midsummernightseats.....as far as I know, yes, you can use candy melts in the same way. I haven't tried it...yet...but from all the readings I've done on various blogs, you can! Good luck...let me know how it turns out...I'm curious now.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

I have used it for cupcakes, and it works wonderfully! Have fun!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

thanks for watching the videos! they are great to make, and its awesome you are watching from mexico! thanks from canada!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@beanfromex11 lol … Thanks … The music seemed like a good choice at the time …

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@rockacookamanga Yes, I have done this in the summer, and yes humidity and heat will affect buttercream. The fact that you are freezing each layer definitely helps in this situation.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Hahaha! We’re currently in a contest, if you have time VOTE for us to win KZbin’s OnTheRise program. Go to our main page and watch the VOTE video for details!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@taimaotro LOL....sorry!! We used music only in the first couple of videos...if you watch our newest ones, we don't have an "under the big top" feel.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

I used to use transparencies because I didn't know how to flip the image on the computer...but if you know how to do that, then you don't need a transparency...just a flipped image on a regular piece of paper.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

you can get it at any office supply store...it's called transparency paper

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

We have lots of buttercream recipes listed on our channel. Enjoy!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@gelflingfaysuzanne i haven't tried to do an outline alone....my thought would be that it would be fairly unstable, but if you put enough layers of the outline, and froze it completely, it might work! let me know how it goes.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

I actually haven't tried it with SMBC, so if you do, let me know if it works

[@jillpritchard8793]

HOLY COW, THAT’S SIMPLY AMAZING!!!

[@testing4echo]

Thank you so much for this video. I've made some great cakes for my family with this process. I appreciate it!

[@Kinnamon100]

holly crap on a cake! I just stumbled on this. the production of your video's, and even your cakes are so much improved. love it , love your channel.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

thanks for watching and commenting!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

@gelflingfaysuzanne awesome...glad it worked! thanks for getting back to me...i'm sure i'll use that tip one day!

[@nataliealvarez1267]

I need to make this for my brother-in-law. He will freak out!! Love it!!!

[@kaylanyoungman5517]

Your brother in law is going to laugh if the cake looks like this. Even though she used an actual image of the skull to trace it, it looks no where near the Ax7 logo...

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

interesting...i've never tried to freeze RI...any tips?

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

i'm sure you can find a colour that is suitable for your project if you don't like black.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

I don't know if the icing would come off of that. You always want to make sure that you're using food safe products when working with food.

[@ToBefoREVerxx]

AVENGED SEVENFOLD. OH MY GOD. I JUST DIED

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Yes, it needs to stay there until you're ready to put it on the cake.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

that's a great idea!! thanks for sharing with me!

[@gothamhandley9867]

Nice method. I will have to try that.😁

[@shuffletoescee9699]

I want to try this method to make mini stand up grave stones, would they lose shape if not kept in the fridge after putting them on the cake?

[@Dolcevita_bakes]

Why not get a grave stone mold and use chocolate? I’ve done the same for a nightmare before Christmas cake I made my nephew

[@alonsofabiana]

Thank you. Amazing I was thinking on applying the techniques to cupcakes. Thank you so very much.

[@Bibyand]

don´t waste your time answering people like this, let them make a fool about themselves. Be a lady (wich i think u are) and let them express freely. Use your talent for positive purposes. Don´t get caught in their games. Salutes from Mexico :D PS. I´ve learned so much from your vids :D tx

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Thanks so much! Easy too!!

[@lorriemcox]

I like the music! It's funny and even funnier when it bothers other people! lol

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Great!

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Thanks!

[@balogunpriscilla8893]

Hello please can you list out the tools you used for the buttercream transfer. Thanks

[@PiatPita]

OMG!!!!! I love avenged sevenfold and I love to cook cakes!!!!! this is perfect!!!! i love it!!!!!

[@hezah96]

musics quite catchy after a while!

[@HookedOnTrueCrime]

I thought the music was cute. :o) And the logo looks great.

[@rockacookamanga]

have u ever done this on summer? because where i live its hot and high humidity...it will effect the buttercream...nice job and thanks for sharing this technique

[@KeOShAsWoRLd]

THANK YOUUUUUUUUU!!!! Excellent job!!!

[@janetmontes7011]

Can I use the same buttercream i would use to cover, fill and decorate cakes n cupcakes.

[@KayleyAnneF]

huge Avenged fan. I wanna Avenged cake!

[@009stupidity]

What's the brand name of the food color dye you used in this?

[@nelldsouza524]

Awesome work. Keep on doing what you do best and enjoy. Ignore the negative people and their negative comments and Focus only on the positive. Luv ur videos

[@moonbow_9573]

Nell Dsouza I wish more people xould actually be brave enough to say this. I wouldn't because one of the haters could read it and yell at me or something and then I would never comment on anything ever again.

[@moonbow_9573]

*could... sorry

[@kaylanyoungman5517]

The little smile on the Ax7 skull was adorable and funny. Since this isn't a cartoon character, you've got to a find way to get those details that you see on the image. The skull isn't mostly white, now is it? The boy/girl receiving this is going to find it cringey and lame, I can assure you this (as a 24 year old who loved this band 10 years ago). Thanks for the transfer tips!

[@tamalaursa]

I do the same thing but with royal icing. Love the video :)

[@amira2757]

Congratulations! Very instructive. What cream do you use? Ingredients, please!

[@heathercampanelli4333]

Omg! I'm a Deathbat foREVer and my birthday is tomorrow and I wanted an a7x cake but my mom said it would be too hard but she's going to do this for me! I love Avenged Sevenfold!!

[@UrrSkeksAughra]

do i have to fill it in or can I just do an outline? I only need an outline done but i want it to be a perfect as possible. I have done transfers before but have not attempted the outline. Do you think it do-able?

[@TheBrandeze]

love the tutorial, great job! I was wondering where or how can you make or get that transfer sheet. I am looking to make a monster high cake. thanks

[@Fran40Mackintosh]

Fantastic. What a great idea !

[@brendabrown9023]

Nice work from what I can see maybe next time you can put your camera on the other side of your hand so that people can really see your step.by.step video instead of looking at the back of your hand

[@jerminajohnson536]

Do you have to keep the cake in cool til ready to serve? Does the buttercream run or design mess up when temp change?

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

Jermina Johnson I have never had a problem with the image altering in anyway, but I always keep everything cold.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

I would make it the night before...in order to maintain optimal freshness.

[@UrrSkeksAughra]

@CupcakesandCardio Well I did it with a store bought icing and it did ok. It would have been better if i had made my own icing but be that as it may it came out well. I let it freeze all night to make sure it would stick.

[@amyborne6898]

Can you use this method to make a stand up cake toper. Like Numbers or Letters? How long will it last before it starts to melt and fall apart?

[@mizzerychick1730]

+Amy Borne No, that would never say up unless you have something underneath like a panel of completely dry gumpaste, and even then you wouldn't be able to do a thick layer like the one she does there. It depends on how hot and humid it is where you live before it will start to melt, also.

[@Angelwithhorns96]

I saw the A7X at the bottom corner of the screen and squealed! I LOVE A7X!!!!!!

[@FreshBurst9898]

I love the music. It made me laugh! :)

[@simplesandy]

can you use parchment paper? thank you

[@kittyloverxD]

What works better royal icing or buttercream ??

[@snowfleas5426]

I loved the video. What is the name of the tune and the group who performs it? I really like the music. I can't see how anyone could be in a bad mood with that playing. Thanks Vicki

[@ajason495]

i like the happy skull face for such a metal band

[@leannesullivan5807]

How long do you recommend you leave the cake for the buttercream to defrost before it's edible?

[@kaybonette]

Ok im lost. Where did you get the letters to begin with?

[@Sundown90731]

who and where do you get the transfer paper, love your cake's

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

i just use wax paper.

[@kidalone]

can u tell me if i can do this with creamcheese frosting?

[@MaheenZahid1]

Also called OHP sheets (over head projector) sheets.

[@RennDiagram]

so is the butter cream just like normal butter cream you put on a victoria sponge? and that freezes and defrosts fine? also, is there a limit to how long you can leave it in the freezer before it goes funny or it starts to get ice crystals form? :)

[@gabogugu]

wow it came out very awsome

[@nilekhapatil]

Can we use SMBC for this?

[@1019Penny]

What is the difference between WAX, PARCHMENT or BAKING PAPER. I've used baking paper under my cake before & when i pulled it off it rips some cake off with it, sometime small chunks..... P.S - I'm in Australia so our products may have different names... PLEASE HELP!

[@amariliscatclaw142]

omg I know I saw it right I love aveged!! this will be my bday cake!

[@valnoboa]

I was going to make a buttercream with strictly butter this time around instead of using Crisco. I saw on another tutorial that they recommended using half half in order for it to freeze well...What do you recommend?

[@cahayer]

i don care bout your music, about it looks like, the important is learn it.. tq so much..

[@SARAAMOTIWALA]

Hi, Can someone please let me know what did she put the image on? Was it wax paper or parchement paper? I am refering to the very first step, when she stuck the transparent image on a paper. Thanks

[@1abudayya]

How long in advance can i make this? I have a party in two weeks can i make it now?

[@ItsPeij]

Why do you use transparencies exactly? It seems like a normal sheet of paper beneath it would be fine since you put the icing on wax paper .... Is there a particular reason you do it?

[@BlanquishDsf]

love the music

[@Iceinmybatman]

Avenged Sevenfold! Haha you just earned a subscriber ;)

[@laurathomas1481]

Good job

[@minny39]

I love the music its kinda funny too!

[@genet5527]

Does parchment paper work

[@teofilavasquez6707]

[@abigailtrejo31]

@teofilavasquez ella usa betun de mantequilla en lugar de chantilly.. Hace el diseño y lo conjela

[@teofilavasquez6707]

muchimas gracias dios los vendiga y sigan adelante

[@LinaBearrrr]

It seems there is a lot of icing. Is there anyway to make it thinner? So there isn't that much icing.

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

20-30 mins.

[@travissmith7471]

Love it. Thank you for sharing

[@Cookiescupcakesandcardio]

no

[@a7xvicky]

Nice!

[@ClydeDay]

hould use Acetate 3mil that way you can see perfectly though. Parchment paper is was to cloudy.

[@mirandamurphy2078]

Love it so much!!!!!!

[@tamalaursa]

I don't freeze it, I just make the "picture" about a week before I make the cake, so it becomes really hard and than I do the same as you do.

[@marikiemarie7622]

Week old buttercream. No

[@rockacookamanga]

@CupcakesandCardio thanks

[@kidalone]
