The frosting was very stable and held its shape. Since I made these, I made a strawberry cream cheese frosting from the sauce as well which was fabulous, but not as stable. I haven't gotten around to posting them -- I'm so backed up! Hi Inga — The cooking allowed for a reduction which always intensifies the flavor, so not as much liquid needed to be added.

Surprisingly, I just made a strawberry buttercream for the first time, but used a much simpler method - I pureed fresh strawberries, pressed mixture through a sieve, and measured 1 1/2 cups into an italian meringue buttercream recipe that said it makes 4 1/2 cups. It tasted delicious and the texture was lovely. I'm curious why both recipes above call for cooking? Thanks for the wonderful sounding recipes and feedback!
