Here take my recipe it works great!

1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening

1/2 cup butter or margarine

1 teaspoon vanilla

4 cups sifted confectioner's sugar

2 Tablespoons milk

BTW shortening adds flavor and the white colour and texture in the icing without the shortening it will taste very bad and you will not have the white colour you want

@Kokirifae I totally agree that using shortening sacrifices some taste, I mean buttercream make with all butter is so much better, but I have had no luck getting roses to not melt when they are made from true butter cream. Also it gets melty in the bag as I am piping...I'm open to suggestions on how to keep that from happening!

In my case I find shortening flavorless and disgusting, I don't want it anywhere near my cakes, Id rather have a not so pristine frosting with a kickass flavor

@libbyft that is what i did with my cakes, they keep the taste and look great! the shortening isnt overpowering either

I love pastry, but i also love savory, cannot decide which i like best, i attend Penta County Vocational school and we did roses today, my first one was fairly nice, then i did two different colors at once, plays for a beautiful colors

Beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing! Your video is better than others that I see. Because they did it too fast and hard for me to catch up.
