Need Help With Lighter Frosting Recipes.
Baking By cocakedecorator Updated 18 Mar 2007 , 7:49pm by ShirleyW
Can anyone offer some suggestions on which recipes to use for a lighter frosting? Hubby wants icing to be less sugarary and close to a whipped cream texture. TIA
I was wondering the exact same thing!

awesome thanks jan i will check them out and give them a try.
My personal choice is Italian Meringue Buttercream. It is light in texture, smooths beautifully and is less sweet. No greasiness of shortening or grittiness of powdered sugar.
