How to Make Buttercream Flowers
Buttercream Recipe: preppykitchen.com/how-to-make...
SUBSCRIBE ► / @preppykitchen
Making buttercream flowers elevate any dessert and making them is much easier than you think. The most important things to have are the right piping tips, buttercream that's the correct consistency and a little patience. So many people asked for a full step-by-step on piping roses and peonies so I hope you'll find this fideo helpful! I love using flowers like this to embellish cakes and cupcakes.
Some Hints for Getting a Nice Flower:
*Make a small batch of extra thick buttercream to make a cone-shaped base for the flowers.
*ALWAYS sift your sugar. Any lumps will clog your tip.
*Storing your flowers in the fridge will make them easier to handle when it's time to apply them to your cake/cupcake.
*Add food coloring a little at a time with a toothpick for maximum control.

John!!! You're incredible! I've never attempted piping flowers before, and I was very intimidated. But after watching a few of your videos, I felt inspired and capable, so I went ahead and tried it! I just made a birthday cake for my grandmother and it turned out BEAUTIFUL! It's a brown butter cake with buttercream frosting (your recipes of course!) and it's covered in buttercream roses! Thank you so much for being a wonderful and encouraging teacher!

The thing I like about your videos is that you don't play a lot of annoying music in the background. Its just your voice that I can focus on while backing because you speak to the point.
YOU ARE THE BOB ROSS OF BAKING! Thank you for all of your peaceful, yet informative videos! Very glad I stumbled upon them! ♥️

I think I fell in love when he said that if you mess up you can just eat then and no one will know. Some day I want a dream man like this to make all the cakes for me. :) :d

I love the slightly ruffled edges on the petals of these, absolutely gorgeous!! Thanks for the tutorial.
I can’t even tell you how happy this video made me. Learning to make these flowers is one of my goals for 2020. Your videos are so easy to understand, and that encourages me to do this. Also, the short cry of a child in the background at one point makes you relatable. Even though my children are grown now, that just sounds like home. Thank you, for your videos. I’ll try not to eat too many of my mistakes. If I do, I’ll totally ruin my other 2020 goal of slimming down. 😊

Excellent teaching and videography. I really appreciate that he doesn’t have annoying music in the background. The very subtle backbeat is just fine.
I have been watching John's videos for a few years and just want to say "thank you" for helping me on my baking journee!
My grandma taught me how to make these when I was a kid. Loving learning some new techniques from this.
Pretty and realistic looking roses 🌹
Hi John, I’m a new cake artist and I usually don’t watch a lot of cake KZread but I absolutely love your videos!!! The energy you bring and the kind nature you have is brilliant. Thank you for making my day ❤️
You are definitely the Bob Ross of baking. So inspiring!!
You've sold me! I think after this tutorial, I'll be upping my game and enjoying the process where I used to stress over it. Thanks!
Lovely video! I feel so inspired to try my hand at this now... your flowers are just so beautiful!!!
I watched this video at least a dozen times for study and just piped the most gorgeous flowers for the first time ever! Followed your buttercream recipe and everything worked out beautifully. Your channel has become my "me time" for the moment...thanks for bestowing your magical skills with us!
You’re just fabulous! You explain things so well and fill me with confidence and inspiration! Thank you for each of your wonderful videos!
Thank you so for sharing your techniques for such realistic flowers- you are a true artist (and your cakes aren't bad either 😉) such inspiring ideas, love this channel!!
The flowers are so beautiful. I love how you make it look so easy. I will try this. Thank you!
I LOVE your videos so much! You have a very calm warm energy about your that every tutorial is so therapeutic to watch. I feel so calm but yet so inspired after having watched one of your tutorials! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I've never seen anyone do their bases of flowers like that. So neat.
WOW! So well explained and what gorgeous results! Thank you!
Always delighted to see a video from you, they make me smile! These flowers look like peonies, which are my favorite! The light pink ones are the cutest!!

I'm making my first wedding cake & I think you're gonna get me through it. Thank you. ❤
I love your baking tutorials all the time! Especially, you make tall cakes for decoration which I normally do for my buttercream flowercakes! Thanks for sharing ❤️
I love using the soft colors too - peach and pink. Very soft, pretty and classic.
This video is so helpful. Making this for my wedding cake..... Thank you....
This is SUCH a great help! I can use my turntable, instead of trying to control the 'nail' as I turn and make the flowers..also I see how you stiffened the 'core' ..Yes, if that is weak, it makes it very hard to keep the petals high...I loved the demonstration..Thanks so much!! Wendy
The very BEST baking channel ever. You are so sweet and a great teacher! Thank you so much ♥️
Wow, these flowers are so realistic and beautiful! Thanks for sharing your informative and clear experiences!
Thanks finally a great video on buttercream flowers 🌸
I have watched a ton of these types of videos; pros or not, you are fantastic. By far, the best that I have seen. Your flower are perfect and gorgeous. The Russian tips video was the best as well. Great artistry!!
What gorgeous flowers!! Thank you for this tutorial!!
Your videos are my absolute favorite - such high quality production with the perfect balance of providing valuable information without a bunch of extraneous talking. So peaceful to watch!These flowers are STUNNING - I can't wait to practice. Thank you so much!
I've never seen the trick with using the thickened buttercream as a base, that is such a good idea! Thanks for the video, it was super helpful :D

I have never seen such realistic looking buttercream flowers. I worked in an Italian bakery where we made everything from scratch (except the canoli shells.) We made roses and buds with a flower nail, and they looked like pretty bakery frosting flowers The ones that you made look like real flowers. ❤️

He is an incredible artist ... the michaelangelo of cake - making ... it's so rare when someone can touch your soul like that and who would ever think that a cake - making / decorating video on KZread could do that.??? 😁 . He is such a nice , good - natured human - being too !! He SHOULD have his own show on the food network !!!!! Best wished 👍
His voice was calm & smoothing... made it easier to watch.
And even if this is an older video, I love the look of these flowers- the filmy frilly petal edges, and the softer colors are a stunning combination. Thank you for the tips on icing thickness, I never knew that and my flowers always failed miserably, and I became intimidated with this. Well, thank you for helping me get the courage to try this again.
Thankyou ,very good ! I feel I can do that ! Very clear instruction and no horrible music , I’m very happy with your tutorials , easy on the ears lol
