I just read Sugarshakes BC recipe. It refers to coffee creamer in the instructions but not in the list of ingredients.
How much do you use? And what does the creamer do? is it for flavor or texture? or both?
TIA
Here's the big thread with Sugarshack's buttercream tips/discussion: http://forum.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-19948-sugarshack.html+buttercream
I have been using Sharon's (sugarshack) icing recipe tips for months. I did a taste test with family & friends....I had other BC recipes that I used (they all had the same flavorings), everytime they all pick Sugarshacks recipe over the others. Everyone like the smoothness, creamyness, lightness and over all texture of this icing. IMO, and theirs this is a icing recipe that works for our taste buds.
With her recipe & tips I really love the look, texture, creamyness of her recipe. If you read the post "My buttercream tips" by Sharon, please try to read all of the thread, there are some really great tips through out the thread and a few pictures.

hey ladies
Glad it si working for you!
I just wanted to mention that recently I have only needed 12-13 TBS of liquid.... I think it varies with each batch of shortening I get. So don't get too anal about the amount of liquid needed; you the right amount you need to get the consistency you want, and keep in mind it might change...'Quote'
As for me I start out with 12 to 14 tablespoons, after I have mix my icing and find I want a thicker consistency, I add more PS, if I want a thiner consistency I had 1 tablespoon at a time till I get the texture I am looking for. My daughter also use this recipe for her 1st. FBCT she did, and it work very well for the size and what she did.
I hope to order some of the Wedding Bouquet Flavoring Emulsion soon, and give it a try. I hope some of this info is helpful.
God Bless,
Sharon
To those who have already called and ordered the wedding bouquet flavoring....how much is it?
I just ordered mine. I cannt wait to get it. Miss Sandra is such a nice lady!!! Thanks Sharon for the info!!!
I ordered a quart on Friday and it cost $24.00 plus she charged me $8.00 to ship it. She asks that you send her a check and when she receives it, she will ship the flavouring to you.
So by ordering a quart -- I had better luv it!! and so hopefully everyone else will too!! I did not get prices on the other sizes -- she was rattling off the sizes she offered and when I heard quart I just jumped on that size.
i cannot describe the taste excpet delish.LOL
it has a combo of almond, vanilla, butter and other secret yummies.
I use 4TBS in 5 pounds PS recipe but if you like it less strong, use less; just play with it till you find the amount you like. I use it in icing; my friend puts it in her cake.
and oh the smell.........................
PS.... no I am not getting any kick backs for promoting it; I just LOVE IT
Sharon, thanks for being so generous with your recipes and tips. I can tell you that there are plenty of us out here that are very greatful!
Sharon!!!!! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this info with us!!! I have been feeling lately like my buttercream is just lacking something, and I think that your wedding bouquet flavoring may be just what I need! Plus, I'm going to try your bc recipe, since I am about to pull my hair out from working with the horrible new Crisco!!!! Anyway, I'll be ordering some soon. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Im ordering today also
Cant wait to try your BC and the emulsion Sharon!! Thank you for being so kind to post all of this, because Lord knows you didn't have to share your wonderful secrets...my motto is though "Ya can't take it with ya so share it "

I don't know how much the other sizes would cost.
Sharon, you should talk to her about setting up a Paypal account.
I want to order some SO BAD, but I am the WORST....we're talking Post OFfice PHOBIC, about mailing stuff!!
I'd be afraid I'd NEVER get the check out to her!
Oh how Computers and technology have spoiled me!!

Haha.. I'm the exact same way.. That's the only thing that's kept me from ordering. I'm just about as bad with a phone. I absolutely can not stand to talk on a phone, not even to place an order. Maybe she should consider a website and paypal account, though if she had paypal, I'm sure I could talk myself into calling and ordering. I don't even order checks any more, since I pay all my bills online through my bank now.. heh
I'm such a geek.
LOL
she's a little country lady; Paypal may be too high tech for her to handle....LOL
but she just started taking orders out of town, so if she gets super busy she might consider it; I will mention it next time I talk to her!
I am going to call and order this..but I use almond and butter flavoring in my BC..do I still use them long with the Wedding Bouquet or just Wedding Bouquet alone?
Sharon,
I just visited your website. What beautiful, beautiful work you do!!! Holy cow!! You are very talented...god bless you.

Mee too it takes me forever to get something out. But now I think the post office will come to you. Go to: http://www.usps.com/ and you can purchase stamps. You can even print out shipping labels and schedule the mailman/woman to come to your door and pick it up. Now THAT is service! It's also the lazyman/womans post office dream
Thanks sugarshack! Called today and ordered a quart and can't wait to get it! She was such a nice lady, I really enjoyed talking with her!! Thanks again for the info!!!
would some one who has tried this Wedding Bouquet ,please tell how you liked it .I would love to try it but need some more reviews .
Well, I sent my Dad on a wild goose chase to find the place, and he finally found it and is getting me some wedding bouquet now! Whoppeeee! Can't wait to try it! Thanks so much Sugarshack! If I ever get back there again, is there anything else I should get??
Christie
There is many post in the forum...that you should not post "save" "bump" etc.
By the way sharon...i just wanted to know if it has almond extract. One of my freinds son is allergic to nuts. I want to know it before i place an order.
Thanks.
