hi guys i'm Jenn Johns today on
buttercream basics we are going to
master black buttercream.
I'm going to show you two ways to make black
buttercream the first one I'm going to
be working on is going to change the flavor
i'm working with 2 cups of my vanilla
buttercream and all this in my
buttercream is a butter, imagine that,
icing sugar, milk, and pure vanilla
extract.
We're going to add in a little bit of
cocoa powder which is going to change
the flavor. My second way of making the
black buttercream is going to be without
the cocoa
so if you are a chocolate hater or you
have an order for somebody who doesn't
want any chocolate
don't worry i'm going to show you a
second way to do that too so i put about
a third of a cup of cocoa powder into
here and I'm just going to start
stirring it and kind of mixing it in
with my spatula because if you've ever
tried to work like a mixer or the hand
mixer with a really light powder you
know what happens when you go on you
turned on too fast so you get a big huge
puff and a big huge disaster in the kitchen.
So I'm just going to slowly mix
it in and then I'm going to continue to
mix it with my mixer we've got enough
here now obviously if you don't have a
hand mixer you can use you can just do
your buttercream completely like this
with a spatula but a mixer does make it
a little bit easier and a little bit
quicker now fingers crossed hopefully I
don't get a big disaster i'm gonna mix
this up completely so for this version
adding the cocoa powder in is going to
give us a brown base to the start of our
black buttercream
obviously it does change the flavor like
i was mentioning and this is also how
you just make chocolate buttercream so
there you go
another bonus recipe with in here so
what we're going to be working with is a
black gel paste this is America colors
super black and black gel paste and all
gel paste colors are basically just
concentrated coloring they're not like a
liquid food coloring they're much
stronger so you don't have to add in as
much as you might with a black liquid
coloring as far as i know we can't get
black coloring where I live
you're in canada so I've only ever used
the gel paste for black and it works all
of the time
perfectly for me so what we're going to
do is just open up the little bottle
here and squeeze in some of that gel
paste and then we're going to mix that
in again with our beaters so I've come
to a color that's mostly a dark dark
dark grey it's close to the back black
but not quite as much as I wanted to be
not as dark so what I'm going to do is
add in another squeeze of my gel now
with people sometimes complain about the
taste of buttercream taint changing to
be more bitter and that's often from
using too much piping gel ER and too
much of the gel paste and what you can
find is when you add in the chocolate
first it's going to counteract
bitterness and you're also not going to
need as much of the gel paste as you
would if you didn't start out with that
dark base so I'm going to with this part
up and mix in this next black part so my
buttercream has been sitting for about
20 minutes and it's a beautiful dark
black shade if you leave your icing to
sit the dell pace will eventually become
more saturated with in your icing and
you're going to get a deeper color
the longer you let it sit now over here
i have a piping bag and it's fitted with
a 1m pip and that's a start it but you
can use any tip inside of your piping
bag and then for support i just have it
here as with a jar and i'm just going to
have you back to help me fill the bag up
so take a little bit of the buttercream
from your spatula and then just wipe it
into the jar and just press against that
rim of the jar and that helps to get it
into your bag a little bit more easier
you can do it just holding it if you are
a very talented and it's like this way
the weightier to cheat it was going to
pull this part up and then just kind of
shape that down and then I'm going to
squeeze the icing down to the bottom
towards my tips and while I'm doing that
I'm just locking the icing in here at
the talk and I'm doing that by twisting
the bag
and i'm going to take a piping bag just
basically attire and elastic and I wrap
that around there and that's going to
help prevent any of the icing from
speaking out the top of the bag so we're
going to use this to pipe a black top
onto our cupcakes so here I just got
some nice chocolate cupcakes in the top
here I'm going to squeeze a nice dollop
at the top and that's going to give us a
lot of height to our cupcake so here I'm
going to go around and just letting the
air kind of building here and then
pulling that around coming to the top
stopping my squeeze and then pulling
away like that
don't do that again here so i'm going to
build the dollop in the center and then
i'm going to go around just keep
squeezing that all the way around going
around your dollop stopping at the top
and then really seen your sweet so the
second way to make our black buttercream
is going to maintain the vanilla flavor
so we're not going to change it with
cocoa powder this time but we're looking
for is to change that base color before
we add the black so we don't have to add
as much black gel paste in order to
achieve that we're going to add the
chocolate brown Play are coloring here
and this is another concentrated gel
paste you can see that the gel paste
come in different sizes i don't use a
ton of brown coloring which is why i
only have a small version of this one so
I'm going to squeeze in some of that gel
paste and i'm going to give myself a
nice little start here and if you're
thinking that because i'm putting gel
paste and i'm still going to be adding
the same amount we're not going to be
because black it takes so long to get to
black it just stays great for a really
long time and so when we start out with
a darker base like the brown it's going
to result in the less of the black so we
have to add in and then hopefully not a
flavor change going to mix this up
why
so you can see that the brown color from
the gel paste is not as dark as it is
with the cocoa powder
obviously you can't it could continue to
add more brown gel paste but this is
dark enough in my opinion to start off
with the black we are going to add a
little bit more black at a time and i
want to give a little bit of a chance
for that color to basically soak in and
then deepen so after I mix it each time
I'm going to give it probably like five
minutes in order to saturate so I've let
the buttercream sit for about five
minutes and you can see that it's almost
like a dark grey almost like brownish
color still so I'm going to add in more
black gel paste and just squeeze that
into there and then mix that up and this
should be good for the addition of the
black after we've got this totally mixed
in the middle let it sit for at least 20
minutes i found that an hour is really
good either you've got the full
saturation of the color after that point
so now that the buttercream has deepened
and it's a nice dark black here i'm
going to take my spatula just like I did
before
I've got my piping tip down in the
bottom there and again you can use any
piping tips so I'm just getting enough
in here now if you don't have those
typing bag elastic you can basically
just lock bags with your hand so in
order to do that what we do is we just
kind of grasped that bag like that and
then just going to give it a twist and
while I'm doing that I've got my thumb
and my forefinger here and this
squeezing that tight so no i think is
going to sneak out the top and you can
do that if you don't have that elastic
so since we did a classic palm talk to
the last cupcakes use this blast i'm
going to do a rose that this time before
rose that we just start in the middle
and I just keep steady pressure and I
just go around keeping it flat this time
instead of raising it up last time and
this one is classically kind of known as
like almost like a rose
that's why we're calling the road that
will do that again on this one so just
squeezing it in the center and then
going around the outside working your
way all the way to the outer edge of
that cupcake
there you everybody how to make black
buttercream
actually it's pretty easy now a 1-1 of
secret i want to let you in on is it's
not a nice the next day if you know what
