Caramel Ermine Buttercream Filling

If you have never attempted my Ermine Buttercream recipe that is everywhere just now, this might get you over the line! You can eat this with a spoon, just saying. I first created this recipe for the Sponge Roll With Caramel Buttercream Filling that appeared in For Foods Sake many many moons ago. If you don't have that book yet, it is time to get with the program. It is available as a beautiful hardcover book HERE or as part of the Insider Club in an e-version! What are you waiting for For Food's Sake?

Anyhoo, slather this on anything and everything. Or as mentioned, just use a spoon, it is incredibly more-ish.
