How to make french buttercream?

Share on social media:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine water and sugar. Stir over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring it to a boil.

2. Using a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the egg yolks until they become thick and foamy.

3. Continue cooking the sugar and water mixture until it reaches a temperature of 240 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove it from the heat immediately. While the mixer is running, gradually pour the hot syrup into the bowl with the egg yolks.

4. Mix until the yolk mixture has cooled to room temperature, and the bottom of the bowl is cool to the touch. Add one cube of butter at a time, allowing each piece to incorporate before adding the next. Add vanilla and salt. Mix until the buttercream becomes smooth and creamy, which should take approximately 5 to 6 minutes.

Tips for making french buttercream

  • The butter needs to be softened but not overly soft that it is about to melt. When pressed, the butter should yield only after some pressure is applied.
  • Ensure that the sugar does not go beyond 240F, as going beyond this point will result in chunky texture.
  • When adding the sugar syrup, set the mixer on low to avoid hot sugar from splattering all over.
  • This recipe does not yield a large quantity, so if you plan to ice a small, naked cake, it is recommended to make a double batch.
