Maybe if you found a way to incorporate the powdered sugar into the butter/fat first (melting then cooling/solidifying) then when you add the butter as normal it might react the same? idk, i might play. hubby likes sweet frosting too.

Thanks so much for the recipes, I plan to try them. I love baking and have had classes in cake decorating but not able to master tiered cake. I live in the South and have never tried swiss meringue, but definitely plan to.

Hi, Carrie - I left the swiss meringue buttercream at room temperature from when I frosted the cupcakes until when we ate them (a few hours, and probably overnight). I hope you enjoy it if you do decide to make it! You can also find the vanilla bean paste at Williams-Sonoma or Amazon.

I’ve never made a swiss meringue icing before, I would probably love it, I don’t like too sweet.. how long can it be at room temp for? Your cupcakes look and sound DELICIOUS!! I’ve also never seen vanilla bean paste before!

Jenn – Yes, you could definitely substitute vanilla extract for the vanilla bean paste. And, if you still want the little flecks of vanilla bean, scale the extract back a bit, and scrape the seeds from one vanilla bean into the cupcake batter.

I am going to make these possibly tomorrow night. Yum! I don’t have any vanilla bean paste, but I do have vanilla beans and also vanilla extract. Can they be subbed?

[...] Stand Mixer. But for now my little hand mixer will have to do. I found a recipe over at My Kitchen Addiction so I thought I would try it out. They came out delish, and moist. I substituted vanilla beans [...]
