Need Whipped/not Too Sweet Frosting For Wedding Cake!
Baking By mmunzmarie Updated 10 Oct 2006 , 1:12pm by angelas2babies
Hello again everyone! I had so much help with my daughters birthday cakes, I thought I could bug you guys again and ask for help with my brothers wedding cake. This will be my 1st wedding cake and I am sooo nervous! I have also volunteered to do the groom cake (going to try to make a replica of Ace of Cakes rocker hand!), the bride cake and the bridal shower cake!! This will be a lot of cake for a beginner!
But, my 1st question is does anyone have a frosting recipe I could use that is whipped and not too sweet to cover the three tier wedding cake? The cake will be indoors on March the 24th. I do not plan to do any decorations with this frosting, I will only use it to cover the cakes. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated!! I just cant seem to find a recipe that has a whipped consistency and not sweet!
Have you ever tried Italian Meringue Buttercream????? It is heavenly......light and fluffy.......so easy to smooth.........not sweet at all....in fact, I often add a cup of powdered sugar to it slowly at the end to sweeten it up. It's so delcious.....and it also has a beautiful sheen to it.

I would suggest the whipped cream buttercream recipe as well. (It doesn't have whipped cream in the recipe) or Charlotte's Buttercream recipe. Both are variations of the same recipe and are not sickly sweet.
Good luck on your cakes!
