EQUIPMENT

INGREDIENTS

500 g (2 ⅕ cups) butter unsalted and softened
395 g (1 2/7 cups) sweetened condensed milk
213g (7 ½ oz) marshmallow fluff strawberry
3 drops (3 drops) red food colour

INSTRUCTIONS

Butter Beating: Begin by adding softened unsalted butter to a mixing bowl. Beat it for 3-5 minutes until it becomes light and fluffy. This step is crucial for a smooth and airy texture.
Condensed Milk Mixing: Add all the sweetened condensed milk to the butter. Mix them together for another 2-3 minutes until they are fully combined. Be sure to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure everything is incorporated evenly.
Marshmallow Fluff Addition: Add the full jar of Strawberry Marshmallow Fluff to the bowl. Mix it in until it's completely integrated into the buttercream. This is what gives the frosting its unique marshmallow flavor and texture.
Color Enhancement (Optional): If desired, add a few drops of red or pink food coloring to enhance the color. This step is optional and depends on your preference for the final appearance. Mix again for 1-2 minutes.
Final Mixing: Mix everything for a couple more minutes with a silicone spatula. This helps to knock out some of the air bubbles and ensures a smooth, consistent frosting.
Piping and Decoration: This frosting works beautifully with a 1M Piping Tip, ideal for decorating cupcakes or cakes. It holds its shape well and provides good pattern definition.

NOTES

Refrigeration: Leftover frosting can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Freezing: For longer storage, it can be frozen for up to two months.

Reuse: To use after being refrigerated or frozen, bring it back to room temperature and beat it again for a couple of minutes. This will restore its smooth, creamy texture, making it ready for use.

Soft Butter is Key: Ensure your butter is softened but not melted. This helps in achieving the right texture.

Gradual Mixing: Avoid rushing the mixing process. Gradual and thorough mixing results in a smoother frosting.

Flavor Variations: Feel free to experiment with different flavors of marshmallow fluff for variety.

Color Customization: Adjust the amount of food coloring based on the intensity of color you desire.
