Would this work to make buttercream frosting for cupcakes and such?

I don't think I'd try frosting in this. I'd stick to more liquidy products, such as eggs for french toast, pancakes, whipped cream, etc. The beaters are a good grade plastic with plastic gears to turn the beaters but this is by no stretch of the imagination, heavy duty. If I needed a manual beater that was more heavy duty, I'd go for the old fashioned stainless steel egg beater, which I also have and love, but it IS a lot of work, smiles.

I think it would be hard to whip the butter, unless the sticks are really soft (somewhat melted? maybe?). It is already a challenge to turn the handle of this Tovolo mixer when the eggwhite is stiff, but this is a good thing, because I know the whites are ready for us.

My wife is the pastry chef, so I asked her. She says yes it should be enough, but don't be overly generous with the icing. I hope this helps.

I'm no professional but have used it to color my buttercream frosting and fondant. You will have to be careful of how much you use since it is liquid and WILL make the frosting loose and same with the fondant/gumpaste. If you find the frosting to loose just add more powdered sugar and cornstarch for fondant and gumpaste. Keep in mind its only colored water. Hope this helps. Pam

I used for fondant, but, I would think it would work. dust w/conf sugar and let choc get really cold. I put in freezer for under an hour.. just work slowly to release... hope this helps..details are awesome

It would not sparkle very much if mixed into frosting, and more would be ingested. This is non-toxic, but not edible. Better to sprinkle on top of the cupcakes.

I don't see why not. I've used it to make mini butter cakes rather than use a bundt pan. If you fill it 2/3 full it will puff up just like on smaller muffin pans. Happy baking!

Yes, you may submit another design and the seller would tell you if it would work. Blue icing is hard to tell as white buttercream frosting works best. You may order up to 4 months before the event, but the closer to the date the better as it is more fresh. These will last as long as they are stored in the original zip lock bag on a dry, cool, dry shelf.

Probably. I have used it for baked and frozen treats. I'd recommend making one or two at first to make sure they will pop out intact. You may need to let them set longer than instructions indicate due to the small surface are exposed to the air to allow for complete drying. I have to bake all treats about twice as long as the recipe indicates or the bottoms are still moist.

Yes. It would! We recently used it to make chocolates in molds. I mostly use it to pour hard candy into molds.

yes. I used it for standard cupcakes bought from a bakery and they worked perfectly.

Yes it can, but you need to take the cake out, let the top melt a little, apply the topper. It will not really melt into the frosting though

I guess. They are made of card stock so they'd get goopy, but it'd probably work as long as they didn't sit in frosting for too long.

I don't see why not. I use it in my convection oven, but it can also be used in a regular oven for baking and then to allow a cake to cool.

Yes as long as the frosting isn't dried out. It melts into the frosting and won't slide off, so make sure it's where you want it when you place it.

Yes! I would absolutely use it to make a cake! We've made brownies with it many times! I often use it for mug cakes when I'm in the mood for something sweet but don't want a whole cake in the house!

You can but I bought a separate cupcake decorating kit. The tips in this Kit will work for the cupcakes but it doesn't give it the professional look you need tip 1M for that.

I have no idea. I've only used it for the cake recipe provided on the packaging. If you are trying to use it as a mold for chocolates, I would think it is much too large and probably wouldn't come out easily. Good luck!
