Swiss Meringue Buttercream (SMBC) is a light, fluffy, and elegant frosting loved by bakers for its smooth texture and balanced sweetness. It’s perfect for cakes, cupcakes, and intricate piping designs. Made by gently heating egg whites and sugar, then whipping in butter, this buttercream is luxurious yet not overly sweet.
