Being a chocoholic from way back (seriously, just ask my dentist!) I'm not a great fan of Buttercream but when it comes to little kids birthday cakes, I think it's slightly more kinder on their bellies. In this instance I love using Swiss meringue buttercream because it's actually tastes better than your average buttercream. Epicurious.com has a Swiss Meringue Buttercream Recipe which is similar to the one I use and is worth trying out. Do read the reviews on this page because it has some relevant comments about the recipe.
So I've just finished ganaching a 4 year old's birthday cake (White chocolate mud with Swiss meringue buttercream filling) which will be decorated in an Avengers theme. Just wait till they cut the cake - they'll get a big surprise!! I think there's something quietly sexy about a well ganached cake!
