A favourite buttercream for cakes that tastes light and airy, despite the butter. Once made, you can then whisk in your flavourings such as vanilla, cocoa, fruit jams, nougat, etc. Pay attention to the texture. The buttercream should not be too runny - we find that fruit powders work best for Swiss Meringue Buttercream. User generated recipes have not been re-tested by Kenwood.
