• Gradually beat in the cooled chocolate until smoothly incorporated.
• Beat in the butter and lemon juice.

• Be sure no moisture gets into the melted chocolate.
• Beat constantly while adding the chocolate to prevent lumping.

• Buttercream may separate slightly if room temperature is very warm.
• This can be corrected by setting the bowl in ice water and whisking the mixture.
• The buttercream becomes spongy on standing.
