Published 2022-08-05
Today, I’m sharing how to make perfect Swiss buttercream and the 10 crucial tips to master Swiss buttercream. This recipe is so simple and easy: you can add the butter all at once, and you don’t need to re-whip the buttercream after leaving it at room temperature or thawing it from a freezer. And it tastes amazing: So smooth, fluffy, and not overly sweet. I hope this will be your go-to Swiss buttercream for your special desserts!

    I've never seen a recipe that had putting all the butter in at once. Definitely going to try this because I always did it with butter going in a tiny bit at a time which would stress me because I always felt like that meant the meringue would be whipped for too long
  • Thank you so much for showing the consistencies after storing in different temperatures. Really helpful.

    Thank you so much Aya .. I love Swiss meringue butter cream . U are the best ❤️
  • I haven't tried this and I really don't have plans to but I wanted to toss out a suggestion. Because there's quite a few variations in SMBC recipes I would suggest people try out a few but instead of making a full batch just make half of it. I finally found one that I like the taste, sweetness level and mouth feel of. The amount of butter I was going through just to be able to make a batch that would ice a dozen of cupcakes was outrageous. That turned out to be only one issue I had with the 1st SMBC recipe I tried. Even if you're adding in a flavor other than vanilla the sweetness level can be off the charts for some. And then the mouth feel? I want it to be silky without it being greasy. Just thought I'd share a suggestion and my experience...
