  1. I've been using this recipe for quite some time straight or of the Wilton Cake Decorating 2010 yearbook. It's so fin to play with the flavor by substituting the vanilla extract for other flavors.
     
  2. Very good and very sweet!!! It spreads easily and it's lovely to work with. The recipe made a generous amount. I don't think it has much of a butter flavor at all though. I followed the directions as they were given.
     
  3. Excellent! I used a spreadable canola oil/butter blend instead of the shortening and butter, and its very easy to work with, colour and decorate with. I used it for a Lightning McQueen molded cake and had leftovers for cupcakes. Thanks for the winner recipe!
     
  4. I was getting ready to post this recipe, and found this! This is my absolute FAVORITE buttercream icing recipe- none of the other recipes (even with 50+ ratings beat this! It's even better the next day!! Thanks! :)
     
  5. Used this to decorate a Dora the Explorer birthday cake. Very easy to decorate with and taste great.
