7. Mend it if it Breaks

If your buttercream breaks, it means some of the ingredients have separated, possibly due to temperature differences. Don't give up on your frosting if it falls apart. Instead, keep stirring for a few minutes. It will likely come back together on its own, re-absorb any loose liquid and be perfectly suited to top your treats.
