Pumpkin Spice Buttercream Recipe

Ingredients:

 • 6 ounces (170g) Sweet Shoppe Pumpkin Spice Flavored Melting Wafers

 • 1 cup (16 Tbsp; 226g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

 • 2 cups (240g) confectioners sugar

 • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

 • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

1. Melt the Wafers: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the Sweet Shoppe Pumpkin Spice Melting Wafers. Heat in 30-second increments, stirring after each session. Once nearly melted, reduce the time to 20-second intervals until completely smooth. Let the melted wafers cool to room temperature.
2. Cream the Butter: In a medium bowl, using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the softened butter on medium speed for about 1 minute until creamy.
3. Combine Ingredients: Switch the mixer to low speed & gradually add the confectioners’ sugar. Mix until fully combined. Stir the cooled Pumpkin Spice Melting Wafers until smooth, then add them to the butter & sugar mixture. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes until well combined.
4. Add Final Touches: Add the vanilla extract & salt, & beat for an additional minute. Taste the frosting. If it’s too thick, add 1 more tablespoon of heavy cream or milk. Adjust salt to taste if needed.
5. This recipe will make enough frosting to cover 12 cupcakes, a 2-layer 8-inch cake, or a thin layer on a 9x13-inch quarter sheet cake. For a 2-layer cake, you can increase the recipe by 1.5 times.

Stover & Comany has a huge selection of candy and cake supply products for you to choose from, and each item has been approved to meet our high standard for excellence. To help you shop for your baking and decorating supplies, here is a brief guide on what you will want to purchase from a wholesale candy and cake supply. 

We want to take this time here to discuss some essential cake supplies wholesale that we recommend you buy to have a well-supplied kitchen. The exact brands and flavors are up to you (we can reasonably recommend any of the brands in our store) but what matters is that you choose these types of products so you can have what you need to make a wide range of cake products for any occasion. Here are our primary recommendations for the cake supplies wholesale that you should prioritize the next time you place an order for baking supplies.

When purchasing the right ingredients for your bakery, you undoubtedly require a wide variety of them: flour, sugar, sprinkles, eggs, oils, salt, brown sugar, icing, butter, and so much more. One ingredient that is vital for the success of any bakery, however, is icing shortening. But, which are the best options that every bakery needs in bulk and how can you use this product to improve your products?

Sweetex Shortening, specifically our Sweetex Golden Flex Cake and Icing Shortening, features a non-PHO formulation and is superior to many other shortenings for spreadability, color, texture, and flavor.

But Sweetex Shortening is not simply better than so many other shortenings. It also has its place in any baker’s arsenal where its many advantages over butter will earn it a top spot.

When buying your wholesale bakery supplies online, there are quite a few factors to consider. A lot of things go into the creation of a cake product that you sell to a customer and you want to keep track of all these things so that you have everything you need in order to do your job properly. Once you have a good assortment of supplies that cover all your needs, you can work freely and confidently to make anything come to life. Before the baking process can begin, you need to stock up on all the cake supplies you could imagine yourself using for one occasion or another. This is where Stover & Company can come in to help. We want to make things easier for our customers to figure out how to shop for cake supplies online, without forgetting anything, so we want to give you some advice for shopping.

Flour, sugar, eggs, milk, baking powder, flavorings, some other odds and ends. Mix it together, bake it as prescribed and then ice or decorate it as is your custom. That’s what a cake really is, right?

Well, at its most basic, sure, that’s what a cake is. But each and every bakery out there owes its success to differentiation and unique processes. Bakers are as proud of their craft as any, and many of them owe their success to traditions and unique processes they have refined, perfected and kept for generations - sometimes for over a century.
