    Yeeesss! Iโ€™ve been using a recipe like this from Liz Merrick at sugargeek for over a year now and it instantly became my go-to. Everything great about Swiss meringue buttercream but so much easier!
  • @moduqueRN
    Thanks for sharing this recipe! Less fuss with this method ๐Ÿ˜Š
  • @user-dq8yu8vd7t
    Thank you Dean for sharing this, Iโ€™m gonna try it! Buttercream icing is not buttercream without the butter! And this recipe sounds fantastic
  • @DoktorApe
    I am happy this approach exists for the people who want a simpler recipe, but I have an irrational hatred of powdered sugar (for reasons amply illustrated in this video) and would rather cook my Swiss Meringue in order to avoid it. Or make Ermine, that one's good too.

  • @BlimeyT.
    OMG I NEVER make this kind of icing to much as a "Patchkah" / Hassel. Heat on heat off... but this... this makes me want to try it! THANKU Dane!
  • @dawnb5215
    Dane!!! You are fantastic. Such clear instructions and encouraging for people to have a go. I'm still to give the original SMB a go, thinking it'll be a disaster ๐Ÿ˜‚ but I'm going to try this first. Thank you xx
  • Thank you for saying how long it lasts at room temp, I always want to know this!
  • I was always scared of Swiss or Italian MB and found the process too convoluted. Tried a faux SMB recipe for a recent creation in January and wished I knew about it sooner!
  • Oh my goodness!! I have had no luck with the traditional method for making SMB, always too sloppy. Iโ€™ll definitely be giving this a go, thank you for sharing!! โค
  • It seems like no fuss cream! Thanks!!! I will definitely try working with it. I hate complicated methods, this seems easy.๐Ÿ˜Š

    Hi from down under, in New Zealand. Love your videos โค Thanks so much for sharing, would this be stable enough for multiple cake layers? And piping? I normally make traditional SMBC.
