I made 'the perfect white cake ' yesterday and followed the recipe and made buttercream It looked beautiful, great texture, but was like eating a stick of butter . THIS is the one my mom used 70 years ago, and the one I will forever use . Mom knew best.

I had fun. Yours is the simplest, informative video for this kind of icing. Thank you!!!

For the seven-minute icing, I always stood over the double boiler (Corning made in the '60's) with an electric mixer until the peaks formed. What a job but made good icing. Your method is much better. My daughter gave me a stand mixer for Christmas last year and is much easier to use for these projects.

OMG, something besides buttercream, which can be so heavy. Can't wait to try it.

Really enjoyed your video. Easy to follow. Thanks Liz

I just tried this and not sure what I did wrong but it did not work LOL. I couldn't get the sugar to dissolve so it turned out super gritty and isn't good. Is there any way to salvage it when that happens? Not sure what I did wrong. Thanks for your videos though! Love how upbeat and happy you always are!

Hello ma'am good morning! I like the way you talk

I tried to make a boiled icing from a 1950s cookbook...I ended up with slime. I'm not sure if i overdid the temperature or if I didn't beat it enough, but it did not end well.

I'm going to try again with this one, and see if it works out better.

Can I use meringue powder instead of egg whites?

[josephinecioffi]

[sTechTalk]

Thank you so very much for the amazing video and recipe. This is the very first video of yours I am watching, and I am now a subscriber. You genuinely seem like a kind hearted person with a heart of gold ☺️; I cannot wait to watch many more videos. I plan on using this recipe soon to make classic white cake. Just had a very quick question. Does this frosting require refrigeration? I plan on making a cake with this frosting soon and I don’t know if I need to refrigerate the cake. -Brandon G.

Can it be refrigerated for future use?

[marleeena]

Hi there! Loved the video! Mine was amazing, but I let it sit for a few minutes while tending to my cakes and it completely dried up, how can I fix it?! thank you

[conniedlawson]

I always loved this recipe it’s all may mom would make. I hate butter in a frosting
