I made a batch of a shortening based buttercream (no milk in it) about two weeks ago. It did have some meringue powder in it. I'm doing a cake for this weekend and have alot left in the fridge. Is it still good?

Yes. I've had good luck keeping it in the fridge for 3 weeks. You can also freeze it for up to 6 months.

Thanks so much guys! I thought it was probably ok since there's no dairy in it, but i just wanted to be sure.

Wilton says their class buttercream recipe can be kept out on the counter for several weeks. I've kept it in the fridge for longer than that. Just do a smell or taste test to check it.
