I was super amazed at this and was determine to have it fail once I tried it. But as you see in the video, it isn&#8217;t a lie, it totally works! You have to be careful about the amount of purple you add in or you will just end up with lilac. I used a tiny bit on the end of a toothpick with mine. The white doesn&#8217;t get as bright white as the the white coloring does, and there is a very tiny slight greyish tinge to it, but it still pretty amazing that it actually works (and that it removes the yellow!).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/090A0457.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-9360\" title=\"white icing\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/090A0457-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"how to make white buttercream \" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/090A0457-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/090A0457-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/090A0457.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To make white icing with white coloring, add in a couple of teaspoons into vanilla buttercream, and stir to combine. As explained in the video, the liquid coloring will change the consistency of the icing, so have a few spare tablespoons of icing sugar around. To make your life easier when doing this version, use a light colored butter (which in my experience is cheaper butter) and use clear extracts for flavouring. That way, you don;t have to add so much white coloring to interact things already there and there is less of a chance of messing with your icing consistency.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re enjoying this return to basics, make sure to check out my first two tutorials- red and black!
