How To Make White Chocolate Whipped Cream Frosting For Coconut Cake

[ejtjahjono]

I just have to say how confusing this video is. I tried doing exactly what you did in the video and nothing ever whipped up for me. It stayed soupy like liquidy cake batter. What you're saying in your video differs from what you're saying in the comments section. The video says to just whip up the white chocolate/heavy cream mixture once it's cooled, however your comments below say to 'add it to the cream slowly'. Say what? That was NOT in the video. So which is it?? Help!?!

[Eszra]

Alright now I know what to use!

"Hey gay' ?!

Hi my question is you have mentioned you use 12 oz of White chocolate how much cream is that meant for or doesn't it matter and can you hand mix all this with a whisk

[Littlecutefishy]

Chef you've changed a lot

[gourmetproductions]

Hey everyone-

First off, the consistency is thick enough to pipe.

Add icing sugar if you want it sweeter. White chocolate is pretty sweet on its own.

Remove the vanilla bean and pour the heated portion of cream over the white chocolate and mix until smooth. Cool until the consistency of a thick sauce and add to the rest of the cream as you are mixing it.

Good luck!

Is the consistency thick/stable enough so that you can you use in pastry bag to decorate cake?

hi chef!

i just want to clear out something... as I recall on the part2 video of "how to make a coconut cake"; you've sort of briefly mention icing sugar as one of the ingredients in white chocolate whipped cream frosting. how come u didn't include icing sugar for this ingredient?

[LuwymyJRT]

Hey there. So after I remove the vanilla beans do I whip the cooled product or do I add it to a whipping cream and then only whip it. I'm trying to make this for my macarons so I wanna make sure it turns out yummy :) please reply. thanks!

[neenapee]

so i make this ganache and then pour into some cream while its being whipped? do i need to add some powder suger at any process to add a little sweetness?

[ksmitar]

hes so cute<3

[gourmetproductions]

You whipped it for too long. Whip to soft peaks, then add white chocolate ganache over the course of one minute. Make sure your ganache is not too hot, just soft enough to pour.

I made this frosting twice in these 2 weeks. I followed everything steps and ingredients. The first time, I could barely frost the cupcakes because the frosting was so watery. The second time， I could not use it at all. I whipped it on high speed for 3 minutes, and still watery. And whip it for a little longer, then turning to be cottage cheese like some viewers said. Do u think u might miss out some steps or ingredients in this recipe? Pls let us know. I do love the taste of it.

[gourmetproductions]

Yes it is most likely you whipped it too long. Whip cream to soft peaks and then add the white chocolate. It takes about 1 minute before it is ready for frosting.

[nomnom4cupcakes]

Hello I tried everything you said and mine came out cottage cheesy and curd like. It looked gross and watery afterwards. What did I do wrong? I used heavy cream and 9 oz. of white chocolate, chilled it, and started with a slow whip and then put it on higher speed. I wasn't really keeping track of time though is that where I went wrong? Did I whip it for too long? Please respond as I am really excited to use this frosting for a cake!!! Thank you :)

[RNmeansRealNice]

I did everything you did in the video but my frosting came out looking like cottage cheese. I used heavy cream and 9 oz of chocolate chips, chilled it then started whipping it in my mixer. I need to have this done by tonight for the birthday boy...did i miss a step? What did I do wrong?

[MissAngie8787]

@RNmeansRealNice you over mixed the cream, if you over mix the cream it starts to turn nasty cause it starts to turn to butter!!!

[gourmetproductions]

It is a good one: Ganache should be soft and not hot. Whip cream to soft peaks, pour in ganache slowly as you you continue whipping to stiff peaks. Do not over whip, it happens quickly.

[arsridendi]

So, after the ganache is cooled, do you just whip the ganache or do you add some of it to whipped cream? I would really appreciate it if you could answer. There are so many recipes but I have no experience and just judging by looks, this one looks great! ;D

[TheCookingdelight]

I used whipped cream instead of heavy cream, and follow all your recipe and method. After the cream and white choc mixture was totally chilled, It couldn't whip up. Is wrong to use the whipped cream?

[gourmetproductions]

@TheCookingdelight

You want to use a cream with the heaviest fat content which is why we recommend heavy whipping cream. Make sure you add the white chocolate slowly so it incorporates well.

[madeitwithlove]

this is more or less how you make ganache, use it still warm by pouring it all over the cake, or cool it, whip it up and use it as frosting. Use milk choc or white choc makes no difference, Keep it cool if you live in hot areas. If it hardens up too much just gently melt it over smimmering water until warmed thru easy peesy lemon squeezy!

[amyfreakingla]

Whip it. And whip it good! LOL :)

[mdjk89]

what about milk chocolate?? I want to do a milk chocolate version!! PLEASE REPLY!!!

[gourmetproductions]

@mdjk89

We've never tried it and think it would work. Let us know how it goes for you!

[Simpleplanqueen5]

"you whip it, and you..WHIP IT GOOD!"

[pinarie]

Dude, you look and sound like Aidan from Sex and the city. Scary and sexy at the same time!

[badjujuwan]

If you don't have vanilla bean, how much vanilla extract can you use?

[eirenem]

Thanks for the video!

[AndreaSPitaim]

Hi, you say it holds well in the fridge, but how does it hold in room temperature? (and my city is hot, sometimes up to 85 F).. will it melt or become watery, or any other kind of problem with room temperature?

Thanks.

Im making a cake a day before and i want to use this cream for the filling. If i make my sandwhich cake and have a layer of this cream in the middle will it melt.

[gourmetproductions]

This will work for chocolate cake. If you are having trouble whipping it up, be sure to cool the white chocolate and add it only once you just have soft peaks with the whipped cream. The quantity of white chocolate varies because there are many forms of white chocolates on the market. We use 12 oz.

[Gargopallet16]

will this work for a chocolate cake?

[suksunit]

How many cup of white chocolate? Thanks

[missemerson]

this is great; I've been looking for a white chocolate frosting recipe!

[learningit1978]

I have made this 2 times now, and it won't whip up. It is staying runny?

[gourmetproductions]

The white chocolate provides the sweetening in this recipe. If you'd like it to be sweeter, you can add powdered sugar.

[Yeatsa08]

HOLY CRAP! He looks just like Dan Cook! =D

[veltins74]

An excellent cream. I made it also from dark chocolate, add a little rum and that's it. I use different approach. I heat the cream to boil and I pour evenly on the chocolate in an inox bowl, then I wait 3 minutes and stir well with whisk. then I put a bowl in a larger bowl with ice cold water so it cool down, than you have to put it in a fridge to cool completely and whip it good as you say.

[gourmetproductions]

You put the cream in a double boiler that has water underneath it. You heat the cream until it is steaming and then add the white chocolate to the cream. Stir it well as the chocolate melts into the cream.

[veltins74]

Cream as nice and steamy? What that means? You boil it and put the chocolate in it or it's just hot, so chocolate melts? Is underneath a boiling water?

[Tadaevion]

Loved it !!!!!!!!!!!! this is going to be one of my all time favorite icings!!!! i can tell already :>

[gourmetproductions]

Powdered Sugar, sometimes the frosting needs it and sometimes it doesn't. It all depends on the white chocolate you use. Have fun with experimenting with it!

[thedepthsofme]

In the second video where you were frosting the cake you said you added powdered sugar for this frosting, but in this video you didn't add powered sugar nor did you even mentioned it. So, how much powered sugar did you add to this frosting?
