Italian Meringue Buttercream Cupcakes

~ Italian Meringue Buttercream~



Italian Buttercream, also known as meringue buttercream, is based on an Italian Meringue, that is, whipped egg whites cooked with hot sugar syrup. Softened butter is then whipped into the cooled meringue, and the mixture is flavored as desired. This type of buttercreams extremely soft and light.
