  • There are a great many cakes that use buttercream, mostly all sorts of recipes for kids. Probably because children are especially fond of this kind of cream. To be honest, as a child I loved it far more than I do now. But that hasn't made me prepare it any less often, because I have plenty of relatives of school and kindergarten age who come to visit and enjoy the tasty food I make especially for them. So, now I'll teach you how to make buttercream for a cake. To start, beat the eggs with the sugar, then add warm milk and heat the mixture over a water bath until the sugar is completely dissolved. Leave the mixture to cool. Now thoroughly soften the butter. Then add a little of the mixture to it at a time and beat it in well. And that's it. The buttercream is ready to decorate your cake. It can also be used as a filling, for example in cream puffs.
