Best 7 Wedding Cake Frosting Made With Crisco Recipes

CRISCO FROSTING RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the Crisco, vanilla, and salt in a medium bowl. Beat with a mixer on high speed until light and fluffy.
• Switch the mixer to low speed and alternate adding the powdered sugar and the liquid until the ingredients are completely blended.
• Beat on high speed until the frosting is smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

WEDDING CAKE ICING WITH CRISCO

Steps:

• Start by placing the Crisco all-vegetable shortening into the bowl of a stand mixer. A stand mixer works best because you can leave the shortening to cream at a high speed for a long time. This will ensure that it creates extra light and fluffy frosting. Use the whisk attachment. Cream the Crisco shortening at a high speed for roughly 10 minutes. The shortening should be extremely light in color and have a very fluffy texture.
• While the shortening is being creamed in the stand mixer, start making the milk mixture. Gently heat the milk inside of a small saucepan over very low heat. Then, add the salt and the flavoring you are using. Gently stir the mixture until all of the fine salt has dissolved. Then, remove the milk from the heat and allow it to cool completely before using.
• Once the shortening has been creamed, sift in the icing sugar (powdered or confectionery's sugar). Start by only adding about 3 cups of icing sugar first. Slowly whisk it in before increasing the speed of the mixer and beating it on high for about 2 minutes. Then, add the remaining icing sugar and again, beat it in slowly before increasing the speed. Beat the mixture at a high speed for 5 minutes. Make sure to scrape the sides using a silicone or rubber spatula. This will prevent lumps and some shortening from not becoming part of the creamy frosting.
• After your frosting has been whipped for about 5 minutes, you can now add the milk mixture. Start by only adding half of the milk and giving the frosting a mix. This will allow you to slowly adjust the consistency while you are working. Continue adding milk until you are happy with the consistency. Then, increase the speed of the mixer and beat the frosting at high speed for 10 minutes.
• Now, wedding cakes are usually made with white frosting. However, today, there are a ton of fun and colorful trends making their rounds. So, if you want to add food coloring, do so after your frosting has been made. This way the color won't be diluted with other additives (like milk or powdered sugar).
