I know this is a stupid question but can you use swiss meringue buttercream under fondant? I have never used swiss meringue but I would like to try it out and possibly start using it instead of my traditional American buttercream just not sure if it holds up as well?

Great! I made a quick seven min frosting and it was divine so I'm excited to try the buttercream. I hate covering cakes with fondant but I'm using isomalt and I am afraid the moisture in the icing will affect my flowers.

Any good Swiss meringue recipes I can try?

Just to be clear, yes to swiss meringue buttercream, but unknown and probably no to swiss meringue.

Yes, FromScratch, thank you for your tutorial--it's much more entertaining than the one I've been using LOL! (Except, I do Italian icon_biggrin.gif ).
