Fluffy Mystery

Publix Fluffy "Buttercream" Frosting

It is BY FAR the most well loved frosting of anyone who likes cakes. Jacob ADORES it and will attempt to eat it by itself. Its not your NORMAL buttercream, you see. It tastes like nothing anyone has ever been able to duplicate. Recipes? PFFT! GOOD LUCK! Everyone wants it, but they are seriously tight lipped with that recipe! I got to look at the list of ingredients by claiming food allergy issues. I can tell you whats in it, and its no buttercream like I have seen.

I personally, think it to be a cross breed between swiss meringue buttercream and american buttercream. It has eggs in it like the swiss, but also powdered sugar like american. Also, it has crisco in it. Read online, that stores like to use crisco instead of butter for not only shape but keep. 

Based on my knowledge of its ingredients and of recipes of others, I might try to play soon and see it I can duplicate it. That be a great acheivment for me, then I would no longer have to buy their frosting for when I make cakes. 

Why? Why eat the rest, when you can eat the best!? Other buttercreams (esp american) just do not compare!


That is all!
