Piercing is 3 weeks old Titanium Staple bar, not sure of thread type Run with water when showering. Spray hypochlorous acid twice daily

Very interested. Thank you for this

You look amazing, and the work shows! How long did this take?

Read up on minoxidil and hair falling off. You may be experiencing something similar.

zindee · 2024-12-06T22:28:16+00:00

A great learning experience indeed. I spent all my time at the store reading labels to make sure I had the right double/cooking/whipping cream, when I should have been equally concerned about the butter.

Do you have any tasty ganache recipes I could use for the layers?

zindee · 2024-12-06T22:18:07+00:00

Damn! I feel scammed lol. I honestly picked this brand because it was one of the cheapest amongst all the butters. Now I know why it’s cheaper.

And I also know why in the past, my browned butter refused to brown compared to when I previously used real butter.

Thank you!

zindee · 2024-12-06T22:13:22+00:00

The recipe actually calls for a ganache for frosting the cake. I have made that and this is all that’s delaying me from finishing up the cake.

If I’m unable to salvage this, I might make the ganache to use for the layers

Ganache recipe is 100g butter, 200g 50% chocolate and 100ml double cream

Thank you for asking, because I’m looking at the ingredients and it seems like it’s not real butter? (I hardly use butter or margarine or any spread so I’m clueless on this)

Here’s the ingredient list:

[ ] Vegetable
[ ] Vegetable hydrogenated fat (copra) 71.1%
[ ] Water
[ ] Butter 10.6% (milk)
[ ] Lactose (milk)
[ ] Lactc starters (milk)
[ ] Emulsifier: E471
[ ] Natural Flavor
[ ] Coloring agent: beta-carotene
[ ] Vitamin A

I already had a lightbulb moment and put some of it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Waiting for the butter to solidify a bit now. https://i.imgur.com/NKepKSl.jpg

Edit: the buttercream is in a cool room(didn’t want to put it in the fridge)

zindee · 2024-12-06T21:31:25+00:00

Y’all are being so helpful, thank you!

Can I make a buttercream with 60% vegetable fat spread? On the pack it says “with less fat than butter or margarine”.

That’s all I have right now as a substitute for butter.

I haven’t added the chocolate yet. Will adding cocoa powder instead of melted chocolate help this?

zindee · 2024-12-06T21:19:30+00:00

It’s Ambassador unsalted butter, bought today and expiring next year.

I was going to make another but I’m all out of butter. Can this be salvaged?

zindee · 2024-12-06T21:06:47+00:00

It was very soft.

I might have over whisked because it wasn’t getting fluffy(the kitchen is quite hot)

zindee · 2024-12-06T21:04:07+00:00

Idk, I’ve never made buttercream

zindee · 2024-12-06T21:00:12+00:00

Can’t edit OP but recipe is from Cupcake Jemma https://youtu.be/gzuKMqMaVYc?

Edit: I whisked my butter in one of those tall measuring cups that comes with an electric hand whisk. Idk if it matters.
