I’ve made this before and it is incredible! That same brand makes freeze dried powdered raspberries – do you think I could just use this same recipe with the raspberries instead with no other changes? Looking to make a chocolate layer cake with raspberry buttercream for my birthday next month! Thanks!!

I made this icing for my strawberry cake and it came out perfect!! It was the perfect amount of strawberry. I got freeze dried strawberries and used my food processor to make them into a powder. Thanks for sharing your recipes and techniques!

Hi Chelsea! I’m making your funfetti cake for a bridal shower. I would love to use this strawberry buttercream for layers and crumb oat, then use regular buttercream for outer layers. Would half this re pie be enough? Or would. Be better to make the full recipe? Thank you!

Thanks for the recipe! I like a strawberry cream cheese icing on my strawberry cake, but it is really too soft too decorate with.

Hubby’s favorite cake is strawberry and I usually make it with a chocolate frosting but this time wanted to surprise him and try it with a strawberry frosting so after looking at what felt like a million recipes, I decided on this and he loved it. He said this is definitely a keeper and already made it crystal clear to not change anything when I make it again. Any thoughts on using the same recipe with dehydrated mangos??

I’ve made this recipe twice. The flavor is amazing! I use Good & Gather Freeze-Dried Strawberry Slices (1 oz pkg) from Target. They have many other freeze-dried fruits, as well! For this recipe, I use two packages of the strawberries. I whiz the berries into powder in my shake bullet. The first time, I made the recipe verbatim. I thought the finished icing seemed a bit grainy. It did not improve after sitting overnight, but it was good. The second time, I added the strawberry powder to the cream, making a light paste, and let it sit for about an hour. The cream very readily absorbed the strawberry powder. After creaming the butter, I alternated adding the paste and the powdered sugar, using one whole bag of pure cane powdered sugar. This time, I would say that the icing is fabulous! It was not grainy at all and even the slightly larger pieces that survived my blender were soft and added little bursts of flavor. This is now my go-to recipe for strawberry icing! Thank you!

If I can’t find the strawberry powder in my area on time do you think blending freeze dried strawberries would work the same?

Will the powder “spoil” in the frosting? I want to try this for cupcakes for a wedding. They will probably be sitting out for several hours plus the time after they are frosted..

Once made, do you have to store the iced cake in the refrigerator?

Hi! Can buttermilk or half and half be used in place of the heavy cream???

Hi Chels!

Is it possible to substitute heavy whipping cream for whipping cream?
