To prevent this, do not pipe the caramel rosette yet! Leave the caramel frosting (and the cake) in the fridge overnight, then pipe the caramel rosette on top the next morning. This will allow the caramel frosting to harden first, so it will not loose its shape after piping. Alternative Buttercream Frosting Recipe: (To use instead of the whipped cream frosting to make flower petals. This is more stable, and will hold at room temperature in the summer or in warmer climates, like the Philippines!) Ingredients: 5 egg whites 1.5 cups sugar - https://amzn.to/48VsDFh 1 lb unsalted butter 1 tsp vanilla extract - https://amzn.to/3HflEvn Procedure: Whisk together 5 egg whites and 1.5 cups of sugar in a glass or stainless steel bowl. Then heat in a low heat water bath while continuing to whisk, till the sugar is dissolved (when it feels sticky to touch, and you hardly feel the grains of sugar anymore). Take it off water bath. And using an electric mixer, beat this mixture until it is glossy and stiff peaks form. Let it cool down to room temperature. When it is back to room temperature, continue beating and slowly add 1 lb of room temperature (unsalted) butter a little at a time (I slice them into 1 or 2 tablespoon size cubes). When the butter is fully mixed in, add 1 tsp of vanilla extract and mix until smooth. Continue to frost the yema caramel cake like in the video. *Disclaimer: Cooking with Kurt® is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
