Gather the ingredients
To make Swiss Buttercream you’ll need:
- Swiss Butter

Prepare the Swiss Butter
Start by softening the Swiss butter to just above room temperature. To do this, place the butter in a small bowl and beat it with an electric beater for a few minutes until light and fluffy. Make sure you don’t beat it for too long, otherwise you’ll end up with a greasy mess!
Prepare the Meringue
Put the egg whites and half of the sugar in a separate bowl over a boiling pot of water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Beat the egg whites and sugar with an electric beater until it reaches the same temperature as the Swiss Butter. Then, set the bowl aside to cool.
Mix the Ingredients
Take the Swiss Butter and gradually add the remaining sugar to it. Keep beating until creamy. Then, gradually add the meringue mixture and beat until light and fluffy. Add the salt and mix until fully incorporated.
