Hi sweet readers ♥
I love fluff! Oh, my goodness it is delicious! You can swirl it on cupcakes or donuts, in-between cookies like my or just take a spoon and enjoy it right out of the
bowl! This frosting has a lot of sugar in it, like most fluff recipes, so if you have a sweet tooth, this is perfect for you.

SEE THE VIDEO BELOW HOW TO MAKE THIS.

FLUFF
- 225 G SUPERFINE OR GRANULATED SUGAR
- 120 GLIGHT CORN SYRUP OR GLUCOSE SYRUP
- 90 ML WATER
- 150 G EGG WHITES
- 1 TEASPOONS VANILLA BEAN PASTE, OPTIONAL
- FOOD COLORING (OPTIONAL)
preparation
- Combine the sugar, light corn syrup and water in a small saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer.
- Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Once it has dissolved do not stir any longer and let it heat over a medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 240ºF (117ºC).
- Wipe the inside of a stainless steel standing mixer bowl and the whisk attachment with a paper towel moistened with a little lemon juice to eliminate any trace of grease.
- Add egg whites to standing mixer bowl and mix on low speed; as soon as it begins to foam add the 3 tablespoons of sugar, a tablespoon at a time.
- When syrup reaches 240ºF (117ºC), slowly pour the sugar syrup into the egg whites, aiming for the side of the bowl, rather than the whisk.
- When all syrup has been added, turn the mixer to medium-high speed and whisk until the frosting becomes thick and glossy and holds a firm peak; bowl will feel slightly warm.
- Once frosting is ready, add the vanilla bean paste and a drop of food coloring (optional) and mix until just combined.
Yields: about 4 cups

Hi Manuela,

Can I frost a cake with this frosting? Or do you have any other suggestions on what i should use, I don´t like to use buttercream…
Is this any different than an Italian meringue recipe? Are the ratios different?

Do you think peppermint extract could be added to the fluff? I’m thinking your chocolate hi-hat cupcakes would be a fun treat to bring to a holiday party, and I’m a sucker for mint chocolate.
Yes you can, happy baking
