@chefslt: • Place the sugar and water in a clean saucepan. • Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, then cook without stirring until the syrup reaches 118–121°C. • When the syrup reaches approximately 110°C, begin whipping the egg whites at medium speed until they form soft peaks. • With the mixer running, carefully pour the hot syrup in a thin stream down the inside of the bowl, avoiding the whisk. • Increase the speed and whip until the meringue is glossy and the bowl has cooled to approximately 25°C or below. • Reduce the speed to medium-low and gradually add the butter. • Continue beating until the buttercream becomes smooth, thick, and creamy. • Add vanilla extract and salt. • Mix on low speed with a paddle attachment to remove excess air bubbles. • Use for cake filling, frosting, and decorative piping. 5. Chef Tips • Use a clean, accurate thermometer to control the sugar syrup temperature. • Pour the syrup carefully to avoid splashing or burns. • Do not add butter while the meringue is warm. • If the buttercream separates, continue mixing while allowing the temperature to stabilise. • For chocolate buttercream, incorporate cooled melted chocolate after the buttercream has emulsified.
