  • Delicious, rich and easy buttercream frosting recipe that anyone can make. This is not a crusting buttercream. It is meringue based so it has a slight shine and chills nicely in the fridge. Takes 10 minutes to make and is fool-proof! Light, fluffy and not too sweet.

    OK so i've been making this buttercream for around 7 months now its my go to frosting ,here is how I make mine ,this is for 2- 9 inch round cake pans , 4 layers ,1 cup 100% egg whites from carton in mixing bowl , 32 oz bag powder sugar and whatever flavoring you want to use , mix all of these for 10 minutes ,then start putting in 8 sticks unsalted butter and 1 stick salted butter mix until it all comes together ,you will be using the whisk attachment on your blender then change to the paddle and mix for 2 more minutes and you will have the best and most silky swiss meringue buttercream

I made it. Put strawberry filling on the inside layer, topped that with the buttercream, covered it entirely in that luscious snow white buttercream and pressed coconut all over it. DONE! A real show stopper! THANKS TO YOU, A MILLION TIMES, FOR YOUR PRECISE AND EASY BUTTERCREAM ICING VIDEO ❤️ How wonderful you are to share your time, talent and knowledge. You're the BEST!
