Inspired by Georgia's Cakes, I made meringue cookies (a large one in the shape of a wreath) and Swiss meringue buttercream frosting by altering one Swiss meringue buttercream recipe. Super efficient way to make both decorations and frosting for your cake.

The cake in this video is my lemon buttermilk cake that I brushed with lemon simple syrup, filled with fresh raspberries and vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream. I then frosted with that same buttercream and topped with an almond pavlova meringue crown. I finished it off with fresh edible pansies from my garden.

You can modify a Swiss Meringue Buttercream recipe that you like, or you can use mine - my cakeculator will let you choose the size of the cake that you need and the frosting amounts will calculate for you:
