Baking By townsendkyra Updated 20 Aug 2011 , 4:11pm by EnglishCakeLady

Im making a cake for a baby shower and i wanted to try a hazelnut buttercream but i dont have a recipe (new to the cake world). The cake is going to be chocolate and white cake. Thanks for any and all suggestions!

How about if you use a hazelnut coffee creamer or hazelnut liqueur for the liquid in the butter cream, not sure if they have hazelnut extract or oil.

If you are using chocolate buttercream, then you can use Nutella (hazelnut spread). You can find it near the jelly and peanut butter. It makes a very tasty filling or icing for cakes. You mix it into your buttercream, and like magic - Hazelnut buttercream.

Absolutely in agreement with Bev55....Nutella makes the best bc ever. I add it to mouselline and it is divine.

nutella and hazelnut cofee creamer for the liquid (instead of milk or cream if you use any) so it gives it a little extra hazelnut flavor =)


What you really need is praline paste. It's made with hazelnuts and makes for a delicious buttercream. You can buy it pre made or make it yourself, and it blows Nutella out of the water.

i agree with dr_hfuhruhurr. praline paste is the way to go. nutella is pretty awesome, but if you want a really hazelnutty taste, then go with the praline paste. can find it online im sure, or just blend hazelnuts in a food processor with a lil sugar and a touch of oil till it turns into "peanut butter" it should be pretty thick like peanut butter.

thanks for all the tips i think ill try them all
