I have someone who wants to do 3 dozen cupcakes for a wedding. She asked for whipped cream icing for them. I don't want to do it since I don't know if there will be somewhere to keep them cold. So I need a FLUFFY buttercream recipe. Thanks

I haven't tried it yet, but there is a Fluffy American Buttercream recipe right there --------------------------->

People have been saying good things about it.

This recipe is from Mrsmudrash here on CC and it is absolutely delicious. It's a good crusting buttercream too and you don't have to refrigerate it--remember that sugar is a preservative.

This holds up very well. Here too is a picture of the cupcakes I made with it: http://cakecentral.com/gallery/2277375/simple-cupcake

Marshmallow, Whipping cream buttercream

1 lb unsalted butter - whip for 10 min on high
1 - 7oz jar of marshmallow cream - whip on high for 5 min
1 lb powdered sugar - whip on high for 5 min
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream - whip on high for 5in
3 Tbsp vanilla - whip until incorporated. (I used less vanilla)
This makes a really light amazing buttercream. You can add more heavy whipping cream (the liquid, not actual whipped cream) if you want, depending upon the consistency you're looking for.

Miasmom82, I tried the "American fluffy buttercream" and it's great! Lite and fluffy and easy to make.

I really like this one. It's basically a combination between a meringue and american buttercream.

carmijok,
Thanks for posting this recipe it looks awesome! Do you whip each item separately and then blend together or just start with the butter and continue to add?

I would assume you add and whip as you go, as just whipping the powered sugar makes no sense icon_razz.gif
