Hello everyone, I'm a new hobby baker and the only buttercream recipe I've used is egg based with boiled sugar water, unfortunately it doesnt say how to store . I kept the cake I used it on in the fridge, I assumed it had to be kept cold because of the eggs but I've read about a lot of different bc recipes where they can sit out, even though to me (and my inexperience lol) it sounded like it should of been kept cold. I guess my problem is, I don't know what bc recipes are ok to sit out or what ones have to be stored in the fridge. I'm most interested in the ones with the most basic ingredients because I live in a small town and have to travel hours to get to a walmart, I really have only the basics on hand. I was very disappointed our grocery store didn't have meringue powder . It may be time for to start looking online for cretin things when I cant get out of town lol . If anyone can give me some advice or point me the right direction I'd be eternally grateful

Hi there!

A lot of CC users and myself use:
Indydebi's buttercream! It can be left out of the fridge - or in the fridge...
