Chicken bald back

[drcara]

Dear all, would be very grateful for any knowledge.

 

I have to make some ivory butter cream cup cakes, for the frosting to be as ivory as possible I need to find some very pale butter (palest yellow the better). Does anyone know a brand that is paler than others or have any other recipes; I think I'll go down the cream cheese route, but the bride wants buttercream!!

 

Help...Thanks

[Space Chick]

could you do half butter/half cream cheese?

 

An alternative is getting superwhite powder....

You can add a few teaspoons to the buttercream.

 

I've never used it personally but its supposed to be good

Lurpak is the palest butter.

[craftyhunnypie]

A scandinavian or French butter would be pale. Try one from Aldi or Lidl!

Lurpak is the palest butter.

 

Ditto....and if you cream it really well it will become paler.

I think Le President butter is very pale too.

Make your own from cream, that's pale, just add one small child to shake it til their arm falls off my DS took it as a personal challenge to convert a whole large container to butter by hand in a jar & was exhausted afterwards ............beyond that President as Christian has said is very pale

Or you can put double cream on high speed in a food processor until it turns to butter, saves on child labour

But easier to clean afterwards & added advantage of him sleeping well !!

just peel open all the packs in the supermarket and see which is the palest. What thats not allowed are you sure?

Thanks for allyour help. I don't have a child, so them making butter is not an option!

I'll have a look at president and lurpak and check out some butters from aldi, surreptitiously!

Cheers
