Buttercream Mix
Light, stable buttercream, rehydrated and then emulsified with butter.
FUNCAKES Buttercream Mix is prepared in two steps: rehydrating it with water, then emulsifying it with creamed butter. The result is a lighter, finer buttercream than traditional buttercream, with reliable stability for smoothing and piping.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our tips
How is it different from FUNCAKES Swiss Meringue Buttercream?
This mix is rehydrated with water before being emulsified with butter, without a meringue base; the Swiss Meringue version first whips the mix into an airy meringue before adding the butter, for an even lighter result.
Can this buttercream be colored or flavored?
Yes, you can add flavoring pastes, gel or powder food coloring, and melted chocolate once the final emulsion has formed.
Why does my buttercream look grainy after adding the butter?
Butter that is too cold or added too quickly can cause this effect; keep beating at high speed, and the texture will generally smooth out as you continue mixing.
