Star Wars Cake / How to make Buttercream

This week I reveal one of my most requested recipes: how to make buttercream. And since I was making a Star Wars cake for my favorite little man, I figured this would be the perfect and fun way to teach you my buttercream and how to make a fun Rex Star Wars helmet. May the force be with you.

So, come and learn, interact, and eat with me.
