In reply to Frank. Hi Frank! It sounds like maybe the temperature was off on the butter or pudding. If one is colder than the other they won't emulsify properly. I talk about this in the troubleshooting section.

Followed directions exactly and did not work at all. Lumpy and tasted like straight butter despite the vanilla extract and freeze dried blueberry powder

Grainy, too soft. could not pipe – the frosting squeezed out as a blob, there was no way it could hold an edge from piping tips. Very disappointed. And yes I followed every tip/troubleshooting.

The frosting is either too loose or gritty, I’ve wasted all the ingredients twice.

In reply to Angela Rae. Hi Angela! This can happen if either the butter or the pudding mixture are too cold. I would try warming the buttercream slightly and rewhipping.

Mine has split. Any way to save it?
