Chocolate Italian Meringue Buttercream | How to make from Creative Cakes by Sharon (VIDEO)
This is the perfect recipe for Chocolate Italian Meringue Buttercream! If you’re not a fan of regular buttercream you’ll really enjoy this. It’s a more sophisticated frosting that’s silky smooth, , not too sweet, very light and has a nice gloss to it when you pipe it. Perfect for crumb coats, fillings or piping over an entire cake! Make sure you try it, above all it’s simply divine!
To make the cupcakes I used in this video I used my Super Moist Chocolate Cake, you can find the recipe here – https://youtu.be/zcuesKL0rUQ
Material & Equipment Used in this tutorial :
5 egg whites
2 cups caster / super fine sugar
2/3 cup water
pinch of cream of tartar (or you can use salt instead)
450g softened room temperature butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
100g your favourite dark chocolate

This is the best buttercream ever I used it for a wedding cake and they were so happy with it. Its so versatile in hot weather too I use nothing now but this buttercream.
Hi i made this but after incorporating the chocolate turned into small bits of choc i I don't know what went wrong please help!
Hi Sharon!
Do you add the melted chocolate while it's still warm? I tried adding it after it cooled down so it wouldn't melt the butter, and I found that the chocolate started to set in the buttercream and form tiny yet visible chunks
I made It. Delicious!!!
Can I add cream cheese to this after I add the butter? or will the ruin something? I want to make a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, but I really want to try out this method for buttercream.
