Finally we can have white buttercream!

Bought this having to cover 3 tier chocolate mud wedding cake in white butter cream.. My tips get whitest butter you can buy.. Presidents butter was the palest . Start off beating your butter to get it pale as possible .. Start by adding your Wilton Whitener until you get desired colour.... Then start adding your icing sugar .... I done it the other way round I added to the icing sugar and butter but by my 2nd batch I'd cracked it... Doing it my 2nd way you loose less whitener too. I do recommend this product and while it cost bit more on eBay than cake shop. It sort of equalled cost out than having to drive to cake shop 12 Mike away . I bought 2 bottles and probably used one in total due to my first way of doing it... I still had big bowl of buttercream left over . I used approx 2pks of butter. Excellent product. Can I just add I covered the chocolate mud cakes in white ganache which I also used the Wilton Whitener in .. Got it really pale could of carried on until pure white but decided not too.Read full review

Need a lot of it to make colour white

Although this is a big bottle you need a lot of it to make the cake/ icing white. I don't know if it would have gone white the more I used, and it does work, but it is expensive to have to use so much for the achieved result. I didn't want to waste it. So if you get a small bottle it may last one cake, but that's it. IT colours icing better..Read full review

Perfect

Just what I wanted! Took on advice from previous reviews and coloured the butter first! It did take a whole bottle (was making enough to cover a huge cake) but turned very yellow butter into white very easily! I will pass on the advice to shake bottle before use! I didn’t and ended up with settled colour down at the bottom, I just added a little milk and mixed it up to get it out! Other than that very happy and will be ordering again!! XRead full review

Best I've tried 😊🌟

I've only used this twice, once to whitening my buttercream which it did, which you don't get with others really and then I used it to help me achieve my blue ganache by adding in the white it helped balance it out the white chocolate drops and the blue colouring. I would recommend and buy this myself again. 5*Read full review

Very good

Very good food gel colouring. I ordered in white to turn butter cream from its usual yellowy colour to white to make snowmen cup cakes and it did take a few squirts of it but it did its job and didn't make my buttercream runny like alot of colourings do. Would buy again. I could have added more to make it even whiter but I was happy at the colour it was.Read full review

At last White Buttercream!

Brilliant whitening for buttercream, be sure to beat butter until pale and add the whitener first before icing sugar, works well with white chocolate ganache too. I'm so glad I found this product and I will definitely buy again. Many thanks Annie.Read full review

Great product, does the job

Only drawback is, requires a lot of it to turn standard icing (for 12 cupcakes) white - cannot imagine how much you'd require if you were to make a tiered wedding cake! And the bottle is not cheap!

Brilliant

I have used it before and found it to be very true to its name.
If you want white buttercream? Use this in the buttercream and you will get it.
I highly recommend this product.
