Buttercream recipe:
400 grams butter, softened to room temperature
700 to 800 grams of icing sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons of milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 drops of soft pink gel food colour (I used Americolour)
Ganache recipe:
120 grams white chocolate
70 grams heavy cream
1 drop of Gold gel food colour (I used Americolor)
MERINGUES:
100 grams egg white (about 3 eggs)
1 pinch salt
200 grams icing sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1. Add salt into your egg whites and whip until foamy.
2. Add in your sifted icing sugar and blend on low until all the icing sugar has been incorporated. Then whisk on high speed for 5 to 7 minutes, or until stiff peaks form and your mixture is super white.
3. Pipe onto your baking trays lined with baking paper. DRY these in your oven with the temperature on 35 to 40 degrees Celsius for 3 t 4 hours. Then turn off the oven and allow to dry over night.
PLEASE NOTE: I left my oven door slightly ajar throughout this entire process. You are just trying to dry out the meringues, you do not want to cook them. They will lose their beautiful white colour if you close the oven door on these meringues.
Alternatively, you can buy them from the shop and avoid the headache of making them yourself altogether :)
In these video tutorials, I normally use Bakels Premixes to save on time.
(Bakels is a bakery grade cake premix. Another great one is Allied Mills)
If you prefer to bake from scratch, I do have a range of awesome cake recipes here which convert to cupcake recipes very nicely too.

It may be easy but it really has a lot of visual impact. The meringues are adorable made with that tip and the added blue icing and popping sugar really made a stand out embellishment and you know I always love gold.

Another absolutely gorgeous cake Rosie, love it & can't wait to try the gold on the white chocolate ganache, so pretty! I struggle with adding gold leaf, do you have any tips as to how to remove from the sheet, you made it look so effortless but I seem to ruin it before it even touches the cake..lol! Thanks so much Rosie & another great tutorial! ☺

[@byronchandler5000]

Hi, Rosie. That cake looks absolutely adorable like you. I am amazed at how it turned out. I have a question: what's your favorite thing to do in your spare time? Please let me know. Have a lovely day, adorable Rosie. :) 💖💖💖

[@hbernardes5300]

Hi Rosie, love your channel and your cakes! Does it work with italian merengue buttercream? Would it be okay eith the dripping ganache? It's just I liki the taste better than just icing sugar/butter...thank you!

[@princesanchez7370]

hi rosie! 😊 I wached you video tutorial since last week. I wonder if I could use liquid food coloring instead of gel coloring? thanks

[@monseheredia3549]

Holaaaa 👏👏👏👏👏😘🌹😘🌹😘 me encanta todo lo que haces un abrazo desde Mallorca

[@crystalbeckett6715]

[@yesimc.7195]

Hi Rosie, So the baiser also during the baking period of 3-4 hours open the door open a bit? And also stay a little bit up, right?

[@josephineadam1051]

[@user-tu3ln4fb5q]

What kind of cake did the pink pigments use?

[@xhottestpink]

beautiful!

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

thank you!

[@XxInvaderNonaxX]

Hello, I was just wondering, what brand of cake pans do you use in this tutorial? (: I love your cakes.

[@yvettestone7099]

hi lovely, did you use pure icing sugar (purple CSR) or icing sugar mixture (pink CSR) want to pick the right one :-) thanks xo

[@user-cf4es6wu4p]

Very nice😍😍😍😍

[@one1ovemari]

what cutter laser do you use to make your cake topper, i was thinking about buying the glow forge but its 4,000 !

[@gloriatapaleao9593]

Hi Rosie, always enjoy watching and trying to learn off your great tutorials. I've always had trouble mastering the decorating part of cakes. Ganache drips will be the death of me! Just a question if you could please help me out, when is the best time to do the drip part onto the cake? I'm not sure if you're meant to let the ganache cool or put it onto the cake as soon as you're done mixing the ganache. Cheers :)

[@ManeLastful]

You should let it cool a bit or it will melt the buttercream. I don't remember how much time it takes, but I would say about 10, 15 minutes maybe ? Depends of where you're living obviously. If you've put your cake in the freezer, then have the ganache at skin temperature, like milf for babies. It should be warm enought to drip but not to much :)

[@SbhAliya]

Good job

[@ItsaMe69]

is there any other liquid we could use to add into the edible dust instead of vodka or any alcohol?

[@Kayla0916]

Especially considering this is a baby shower cake

[@zeenat423]

You can use almond extract :) works exactly the same as vodka

[@gipperakh]

The alcohol evaporates. There's no getting drunk or being harmed by that alcohol.

[@armuniz1489]

How do you store meringue??

[@tanyaw5059]

Really loving your videos. I was wondering when you made this cake, how many quantities of Butter Cream do you need? (just to cover the cake I mean) Thanks heaps :)

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Hi Tanya, normally it would take about 400 grams butter, 800 grams icing sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 2 to 3 talespoons miilk. But I always do a recipe for 500 grams butter 1kg icing sugar, its always nicer to have extra than it is to have to remake the buttercream :)

[@imeliciouz1085]

Hi rosie.. Why the ganache recipe here is different than other cake.. The usual one was 1:3 right? Thank you for your lovely videos, really inspires me

[@celiafodor9252]

Candy rocks look like fish food 😂 beautiful cake!

[@malaia71]

what cream you use to lubricate cakes?

[@dellafelipa8970]

Nice cake

[@hihealthmood]

hello rosie, you are the bestel "!!! how to get this beautiful color? kiss from the Ivory Coast

[@donad8436]

Do you only make chocolate cakes or do you make vanilla

[@fathimahusna6121]

at which step did you add vanilla essence?

[@kellinsanchez7562]

Can you use water instead of volka

[@tineazodnem]

hello chef! are you using a crusting buttercream recipe? and if you are, does it hold long in room temp? thank you!

[@kathyphai5518]

Christine Therese Mendoza yo

[@vivianneee98]

Can i use white compound choc for the drips?

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Hi Vivianne, yes you can :)

[@humanizamuddin692]

Hi Rosie!! This is beautiful. Do you know what else I can use instead of vodka for the gold painting?

[@SanbanKuki3]

clear extracts

[@ManeLastful]

rose water of lemon juice.

[@humanizamuddin692]

+you forgot to signout +ManeLastful Thank you both!

[@anshikalakhmani3932]

what can I use instead of egg for meringue... plz rep asap...

[@marilynrodrigues8788]

How much would you charge for this cake

[@sheesnafees5119]

Kindly tell me difference between ameri colour or jel food colour?

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Hi hun, Americolour is a brand of gel food colour :)

[@Uyireyk]

hi can we paint gold on the butter cream?? thanks in advance

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Hi Rabia, yes you can :) it might look like there are teeny tiny little holes if you look closely though (thats what I find when painting directly onto buttercream).

[@bolisdalva6263]

hermoso

[@leitesilva4674]

ameiii 👏👏👏👏

[@rahmabouras7354]

[@MaryamKhan-vf3zo]

What can we use Instead of Vodka?

[@savitadoodnauth9620]

Does anyone know what piping tip was used for the meringues?

[@camillaejakobsen]

she used the wilton 1M tip :)

[@savitadoodnauth9620]

+Camilla thank you, i just realized she said it at the beginning of the vid lol

[@doniaanderios5045]

wawooo amazing

[@cleanegomessantos1050]

era bom q tivesse tradução p o portugues

[@therealltatiili_]

that looksgood

[@mommymarcellachannel4109]

can use fresh cream as the frosting..

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

hi hun, for short cakes you can, but it is not very stable unfortunately.

[@stellaadler6838]

do ouhave a chocolate cake recipe?? Thanks

[@Melissa-zm1ky]

how much did you charged for this cake?

[@suuschef]

Do you put it in the freezer or the fridge? My freezer doesn't have that much space.

[@ManeLastful]

The frigde will do it but have it as cold as you can and let it longer. about 1h or more depending on the size of your cake. It's ready when the surface is hard and don't have the imprint of your finger on it.

[@naziagray9394]

nice job

[@mariapaulananez8917]

hi Rosie! I love your videos! You know, I've tried doing your vainilla sponge cake in a 4" pan and it didn't turned out well... the middle would never bake and when it does, it goes down after a few minutes. It takes like an hour to bake in low heat... can you help me?! or how do you do the sponges for your mini cakes?

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Hi Maria Paula Ñañez, it sounds like your oven temperature is too low. Is this for the butter based cakes? I bake mine at 180 degrees Celsius, which I am pretty sure is 350 degrees Farenelheight.

[@mariapaulananez8917]

Rosie's Dessert Spot yes, is the recipe you use for cupcakes too. How deep is you pan for the mini cakes and how long does it takes to bake them? Thanks!

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Maria Paula Ñañez yes, it can be used for cupcakes as well. In a 4 inch, mine take about 40 to 50 minutes. Have you put an oven thermometer is your oven to check its accurancy? This might help. It might be your oven needs to be high by a few degrees.

[@mariapaulananez8917]

Rosie's Dessert Spot last question! Do you make any changes in the recipe to adapt it to the pan?

[@Rosiesdessertspot]

Maria Paula Ñañez No, I use the same recipe. For larger pans, I double the recipe exactly :)

[@kourshabakery7915]

God work

[@georgiawells6151]

Can anyone help me because i made ganache and it was not liquid but more like mousse, someone please help

[@aishasyed7144]

for dripping consistency you need to take 2 parts of cream and one part of chocolate

[@r.9249]

sbsolutely beatiful Rosie.pls open your fb meseenger ive sent you a video of my little daughter's birthday..hope you like it.i worker hardly to do it..haha im not professional like you..im teaching from you adorable lady😊

[@emmajenna6600]

I like when she said very easy lol

[@abbeywalker5283]

can you just put the gold dust in with the chocolate melts instead of painting it on??

[@devikaagashe7769]

but then it won't be as bright as the one painted on.that's what I think

[@abbeywalker5283]

+Devika Agashe okie dokes. Thanx

[@pijahrahim9855]

can i use water instead of alcohol to mix the gold dust?

[@AlucardRawks]

You can but the water won't evaporate like alcohol does which is why alcohol is used. If you absolutely can't use alcohol, I'd recommend using lemon juice or clear vanilla essence

[@pijahrahim9855]

+AlucardRawks thanks for the tip

[@cocosugarbar2484]

+AlucardRawks i have the Same Problem because im gonna make this for Kids. So should i take fresh lemon Juice or essence?

[@germokshamid967]

[@marinanicole7997]
