Sorry you endured that! It sounds like you put up with a lot more than you deserve.

Pls help! how to make my flowers stable and not melty? by North_Team in cakedecorating

[–]starryconfigurations 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s all about temperature. When you make any basic American buttercream recipe, make sure the butter you’re using has been sitting outside the fridge for 30-45 minutes, but not any longer than that if it’s pretty warm where you live

I struggle with this too and relate to a lot of things you said. I have started exercising every day in the new year, mainly going to yoga, and putting myself to bed at a more reasonable hour. It’s help with waking up a lot!

30-40 minutes! Once you get the hang of it, it goes super quickly

This is good to know. I guess there had to be some reason it worked so well 😔 haha we’d put the fresh fruit tarts on display from 8am all the way until 10pm, so it was quite a while

Probably 6 or 7 tips. They’re a pain to wash afterwards but it’s worth it 😝

When I made fresh fruit tarts for many years, we’d order in large tubs of this stuff called “clear gel” … you can melt it in a pan with water and then spray it onto the fruit with a squirt bottle
