My Secret Fluffy Vanilla Frosting

Unlike traditional buttercream, this Fluffy Vanilla Frosting is silky smooth, much fluffier and far less sweet. The texture is slightly denser than whipped cream, but unlike whipped cream that deflates within hours, this Frosting is stable for days. It pipes like a dream, and is straightforward to make.

It's actually an old fashioned frosting called "Ermine Frosting". If you've never heard of it before, the ingredients and method will intrigue you!

I just made this today with lemon extract and it is PERFECT!! It is such a wonderful icing and pipes perfectly! Perfectly light, fluffy, smooth, and not overly sweet like buttercream. This will be my go-to from now on😄

For all those asking for measurements, she put the link to the recipe in the video description.

I doubled the recipe and it turned out perfect and DELISH! I was actually able to ice 48 cupcakes with doubling this recipe, I just didn't make the icing towers go as high as she did in the video (that's a little too much icing for me). They look so professional and taste great.

Lovely timing! Was looking for frosting recipes without powdered sugar because I think it makes it too sweet and gritty. Thank you :)!

Thank you Nagi for teaching us, it came out excellent with 1/2 cup of caster sugar. I have been trying to find a way to reduce sweetness of my cupcake frosting. Finally, found this awesome method u bought to us.

I was afraid that I would mess up in the roux, but it was surprisingly easy to make! Turned out great!

Can we use this recipe for piping flowers (make 1 day in advance in the fridge) and place them on a whipping cream frosting-based cake?
