I am happy this approach exists for the people who want a simpler recipe, but I have an irrational hatred of powdered sugar (for reasons amply illustrated in this video) and would rather cook my Swiss Meringue in order to avoid it. Or make Ermine, that one's good too.

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

Totally understand this! It’s a good alternative. I personally prefer regular Swiss, cooked on the hob

@jaccrasto9660 3 месяца назад

@Plainandsimple25 3 месяца назад

Thank you. I'm going to give it a go. I usually make a simple chocolate buttercream with icing sugar, clover butter and Cadbury Coco powder, it used to always turn out delicious but the last few times it is not tasting as good. I don't know if it's something I'm doing wrong or if the makers of clover butter have changed their recipe.

@auntiedough2488 3 месяца назад

Fabulous! Have you ever tried using meringue powder for SMB? It works like a dream!

@tammiemartinez6485 3 месяца назад

No but I've always wanted to. I use a SMBC recipe that calls for 7 LG egg whites, 2 cups of sugar but you can use 1/4 of a cup less and only 3 sticks of butter (339 grams). Gemma's OG SMBC calls for 4 LG egg whites, same amount of sugar I believe but almost a full lb of butter. I always used Gemma's until I came across the one above because that one uses more whites and less butter which makes the buttercream have a less greasy mouth feel. Would you mind sharing your recipe? Or just the amount of meringue powder per egg white? Thanks in advance...

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

Personally, I haven’t tried this!

@elliottcohen6055 16 дней назад

What is the yield of this recipe? Either in cups or number of cupcakes? Should the egg whites be cold or room temperature? If I wanted to make this with Nutella how much should I add? Thanx from Canada!

@user-pr4sr5gd3s 3 месяца назад

Thank you Dane. Just trying it now. Cleaned bowl/wisk but not holding its form. Using two chick's and silver spoon icing sugar. Any suggestions?

The icing sugar might be the issue! Try using a different brand. Tate & Lyle is great if you can get a hold of it 😊

How much buttercream does this make? Will it fill and cover an 8inch 4 layer cake or would I need to double the recipe?

I just filled and covered (including crum coat) a 3 layer 8in cake with 1 batch. Had about a cup left over. I reckon you could do a 4 layer. (I don’t know if I’d make it again, I prefer the non-faux version)

@tammiemartinez6485 3 месяца назад

Ooh I love this. I have used pasteurized egg whites before when I wanted to see what kind of result I'd get when making a Pavlova. It was okay but I eventually stuck with reg whites because they didn't get as stiff as I'd like them to be for a Pavlova. But this? What a great way to make a SMBC without the hassle of the heating and cooling down process that really works your mixer lol. Because we're using powdered sugar would you say it's less or more sweeter?

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

Great question! In my opinion I would say they’re on par with sweetness. Heating the sugar seems to make it on par with the icing sugar. Also yes, I would agree, using fresh eggs is always better than carton for meringues in my opinion too

Hi! Big fan of the channel and novice cake baker here. I've been wanting to try to find another buttercream instead of american buttercream and I'm hoping this is it! Silly question, why do you not need to cook the egg whites? I thought eggs in most countries are unsafe to eat when they're raw? (I'm from Aus). I've never tried making a swiss meringue buttercream either, but I find they taste too buttery when I've tried some that others make. But you need to cook a SWB i believe, so just wondering why this doesn't need it? If you or someone else finds a chance to answer that would be much appreciated!! Thank you in advance :) :)

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

Hey! Thanks for tuning in. These egg whites have been pasteurised, which means they’ve been heat treated at a controlled temp and time to safely kill bacteria that can cause food born illnesses. Therefore no need to cook. Plus, because we’re using icing sugar, it’s already a powder, thus smooth when mixed with liquid, no granules (like caster sugar) to be dissolved. Hope that answers your question 😊

@sarahpeterson9607 3 месяца назад

OK wonderful!! Thank you for the information Dane! 😊😊 I'll give it a go. :)

@marycoombe2436 3 месяца назад

I understood the egg whites in a carton don’t whip up as well as normal egg shell egg whites. Is this wrong, or are you using a special type of carton egg whites. Is there something I need to see on the carton to get the correct egg whites?

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

I think they whip up well for this, however I understand your doubts as I have used carton egg whites to make Italian meringue for macarons and I don’t feel I get as good of a result, compared to using fresh eggs.

@AritonaPaun 3 месяца назад

This is great and all, but i think it defeats the purpose of smbc, which is to be light and not have as much butter. I use 230 gr egg whites with 400 gr superfine sugar and 350 gr butter. If you use double the amount of butter just to be able to make it cold, i think it's not ideal. And it brings the cost up too much. It's a very good alternative when you don't have a heat source, though.

@danepemberton136 3 месяца назад

Totally agree, this one is a little more heavy on the butter, I personally think this one is better if you’re adding inclusions like chocolate, nut pastes etc

@katherineschull5039 3 месяца назад

When do you add your butter? The amount of butter in recipes I’ve seen always made me think twice about making it, but they say the amount is necessary for the emulsification!

@@katherineschull5039 once the meringue reaches 24 C, you can add the butter at 16 C a tablespoon at the time, while mixing with the paddle attachment on low/medium speed.
