Hi-does anyone have a recipe for simple white cake frosting?

Question

(there may be one on the powdered sugar box - lol.)

Answer 1

Yes, most powdered sugar boxes have them.
I like to use cream cheese & powdered sugar.
It tastes better to me than using butter or margerine.
Just take the recipe on the box and substitute cream cheese for the amount of margerine called for.

Answer 2

I'll give you two.

BUTTER CREAM FROSTING
1/4 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar - firmly packed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons cream or whole milk

Cream butter until very soft and smooth; then add sugar gradually, creaming thoroughly. Add salt and vanilla. Work in the cream using just enough to produce a smooth spreading consistency. Amount is sufficient for two 8-inch layers.

GLOSSY WHITE ICING (My very favorite but time consuming. Try it one day when you have time.)

1 1/8 cups sugar
1/3 cup water
2 egg whites
pinch salt
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 tablespoons powdered sugar - pressed down firmly
1 teaspoon vanilla

Put sugar and water into saucepan, stir, place over low heat. Turn egg whites into mixing bowl, add salt, beat to a foam, then add cream of tartar and beat until stiff with a wire whisk, gradually adding the powdered sugar as you beat. Mixture should have moist, shiny peaks when all the sugar is beaten in. When boiling sugar and water syrup is cooked to 236 degrees, pour slowly but continuously over the egg whtes while beating. Continue beating until cold. Stir in vanilla.*

*This is the original recipe. I never, ever, attempted to use a wire whisk on this one. At no time in my life would my arms have stood this torture! Instead I use a free standing mixer. It will take a while for the cooked syrup to get cold, but it is worth every minute.

Answer 3

One and a nil.5 recipes fill the 14 incher 0.5 finished. the ten incher takes one recipe, and the 6 incher will take the different 0.5 recipe. so which you're observing 2 circumstances any recipe on your tiered cake. 14 inchers bake approximately 10 minutes longer than the ten inchers! Do be sorting out at 5 minute periods after eliminating the ten inchers once you know how long to do them. The final tiered wedding ceremony cake I made I extra 8 ounce brick to Betty Crocker White blend! It firms up the muffins right without drying them out so as that they are very nearly inedible. supplies an extra develop to the flavour, then employing a million teaspoon almond or lemon extracts in line with blend replaced into proper. did no longer value lots extra effective than if making it from my bakery formula (which i could no longer locate that e book at that 2d). The bakery formula for white cake makes approximately 5 gallons and that i do no longer inevitably decide for to divide it right down to a minimum of one 3-tier cake.

Answer 4

When i worked for a bakery the frosting most requested was the easiest recipe. powdered sugar and crisco you can find the recipe on powdered sugar boxes
