So I've made buttercream transfers using  buttercream with all butter and it's always worked fine. Maybe a little grainy or streaky, but not sure if crisco would change that.   Wondering if anyone has tried the easy swiss meringue made with powdered sugar?

I have not, but since it is made with butter and sets up firmly in the fridge, it should work fine.

Thanks for responding.  I tried it with some extra I had in the freezer and it seemed like it was separating while piping and it seemed oily.  It may have been because it had been previously frozen and I hand whipped it instead of using my mixer. I realized later that I forgot I was working with swiss and not ABC frosting.
