I find American butter cream does have a bit of a grainy texture..i use heavy whipping cream to thin mine out and it also smoothes it a bit better than just milk I have found.. But I recently started to just use SMBC instead because I love the smoother creamy texture and it’s alot more stable and less sweet. 😁

Thank you so much Anna! I will try it with the heavy creem to. Today I made first timevthe Sweden and wow it is so tasteful and so smooth I love it.. want more time but it is so much better

Your so welcome! It does take quite a bit more time but you can also make it ahead and freeze it 😊 I do that when I can and just bring it to room temp and whip it back together.. Works great!

That one I know it is for filling.. do you know if it is good for piping ? I want to make a grass did will work?

Oh yes! It is awesome for piping..i actually used chocolate SMBC for this cake..i think it hold up better than American butter cream.. The only t thing is it doesn’t crust over the way ABC does 😊
