In reply to Laurie. Hi Laurie! I made the rosettes by putting two different buttercreams in the piping bag. The crispearls I bought.

I was wondering if the two-toned rosettes and crispearls are something you made or bought?

In reply to Jeannie. Hi Jeannie! Strange, it sounds like it almost started to separate a bit. Had it been sitting out for a while? I find I need to rewhip mine if it's been sitting on the counter for 15mins or more just to fluff it up a bit again and get it to the right consistency. I suspect that may have been it?

Hi! I made this last night and the cake and espresso buttercream tasted great! But the eggnog buttercream is a little hard to work with and hard to properly stick to the cake, can you help me debug what’s wrong? Maybe is adding in the extra liquid? or under/over mixing it?

Thank you!

In reply to Ginger. Hi Ginger! I prefer to refrigerate my cakes, but this one will be fine at room temp for a couple days.

Should the finished cake be stored at room temperature or refrigerated? Thanks so much.

In reply to Sue. Hi Sue! I would do the soak when you're assembling the cake the next day. Let me know how you like it! :)

Hi again, Liv,

I’ve got this cake in the oven right now and realized something important!! I usually bake one day, refrigerate overnight and frost the next day. Should I do the soak the first day before refrigerating or the second day just before icing the cake?

Thanks,
Sue

In reply to Patty. Hi Patty! It's not a typo. The recipe makes a lot of buttercream so there is enough to fully frost and decorate the cake. You can use 2 cups butter if you prefer though!
