Can we talk about how a lumpy buttercream almost ruined my sister's shower cake
Made a three layer vanilla cake for my sister's bridal shower up in Rochester on Saturday. The buttercream split on me while I was mixing it, looked like cottage cheese in the bowl. I stuck the whole thing in the fridge for 20 minutes and whipped it back with a splash of warm cream, and it came together okay, but the crumb coat was a mess. I know some folks swear by tossing a split frosting, but I think you can almost always save it if you just cool it down. What's your go to fix when buttercream breaks?
