Some Baked goodness

In the search for a whiter buttercream - the wonderful ladies on Baked from Scratch flickr group - suggested Swiss Meringue Buttercream - I wanted to make a nice pink icing. So here's the result. Now I'm still deciding if I like it better than standard buttercream - but Shane loves it - it's smooth and silky and creamy - but a bit buttery for my taste I think. It was relatively easy to make though.



The swirls aren't the best as I had helpers in the form of my 4yo DS and 2 yo DD lol!!



So it's chocolate cupcake with pink/white Swiss meringue buttercream.



These ones are orange cupcake with orange buttercream
