Buttercream recipe

2 cups shortening

2 pounds powdered sugar, sifted

2 Tbsp meringue powder

2 tsp flavoring

7 Tbsp water

Mix shortening, water and flavoring. Slowly add 1/2 the powdered sugar and mix for 2 minutes. Add meringue then the rest of the sugar. Mix for another 2 minutes until creamy. Do not whip if you planning on spreading the frosting because it will leave bubbles in the frosting.

what size tips did you say you where using and are there other tips that can be used instead????

[dtdonnahoo]

@gngstafyd You can use ANY size petal tip or a curved petal tip. My faves are 126 and 121.
