You can make it any flavor you like! frosts a 2-layer cake plus some

Steps:
- Using electric mixer (prefereably not handheld), cream shortening until very soft.
- Add salt, a little powdered sugar and flavorings.
- Alternately add water and powdered sugar, beating on medium speed until frosting is smooth after each addition.
- ***Do not mix on high speed as it will cause bubbles in the finished frosting.
- ***NOTE: This frosting makes enough to frost a 2-layer cake with enough left to make decorative roses, etc.
- for the top of the cake.
- DECORATIONS: Roses, leaves and other decorations can be made by adding tasteless food coloring paste (Wilton is one brand) to the frosting.
- Make decorations, place on plastic wrap on cookie sheet and cover gently with plastic wrap.
- Freeze for up to 1 month.
- ***If you decide to freeze your frosted cake, DO NOT put the decorations on it until after you have thawed both the cake and decorations, as the colored decorations will bleed into the cake frosting when they thaw.
- ***Defrost cake and decorations separately and then place decorations on the cake.
- VARIATIONS: For chocolate frosting, add 3 tbs powdered cocoa to the sugar mixture.
- For lemon, omit butter and vanilla flavorings and add 3 tsp.
- lemon extract.
- COLORED FROSTINGS: Frosting can be made any color you want with tasteless food coloring, but be sure to mix well after adding the coloring.
- WEDDING CAKES: Five recipes of this frosting will decorate wedding cakes as follows: top layer 6-inch cake, middle layer 14-inch cake and bottom layer 18-inch cake.
- This will serve 50-60 people.
DECORATOR FROSTING I
This is a pure white wedding cake frosting. You can double the recipe if you have a sturdy mixer. Add milk according to purpose; you need less if you are making flowers or borders than if you are just covering a cake. Remove what you need for decorating before you thin the rest down for frosting.

I always use this when I decorate cakes and I get many, many compliments on the wonderful taste. It is not that usual shortening-and-sugar-bakery-icing taste. If I am not using it to decorate a cake with, I use my all butter variation: Recipe #261024.

19 CAKE FROSTING RECIPES SO GOOD YOU’LL LICK THE BOWL
From epicurious.com
Published 2020-05-20
- American buttercream frosting. Perhaps the simplest of all frostings is this uncooked, powdered-sugar-sweetened version of buttercream. It’s the classic type of frosting found on many old-fashioned birthday cakes.
- Swiss meringue buttercream. Making European-style buttercream is slightly more complicated than making American-style: there’s usually some kind of cooking involved, you’re often dealing with hot sugar, and timing matters.
- Italian meringue buttercream frosting. Italian buttercream also relies on egg whites, but it comes together a bit differently. In this case a hot sugar syrup is slowly added to the egg whites while they’re being whipped.
- French buttercream frosting. The method for making French buttercream is very similar to the way you make Italian buttercream, except that instead of whipping egg whites, you whip just the yolks.
- German buttercream (a.k.a. crème mousseline) This version of buttercream starts with a pastry cream or custard—that is, a mixture of cooked egg yolks, milk, sugar, and either cornstarch or flour.
- Whole-egg buttercream frosting. This version of buttercream lands somewhere in the middle of Swiss meringue buttercream and French buttercream. It asks for whole eggs, which means it has the richness of yolk-based buttercreams and lightness of meringue-based.
- Cream cheese frosting. Tangy cream cheese frosting is a natural partner for earthy, sweet carrot cake. Photo by Chelsea Kyle, Food Styling by Olivia Mack Anderson.
- Seven-Minute Frosting. Bright white seven-minute frosting is a long-time companion of dark, rich devil’s food cake. If you’re looking for maximum color contrast, it’s the pairing to beat.
- Ermine frosting (a.k.a. flour frosting, a.k.a. magic frosting) Cream cheese frosting may often be spread on red velvet cake these days, but ermine frosting is the original pairing.
- Old-school bakery frosting (a.k.a. grocery store cake–style frosting) For the sugar rush only this classic frosting can bring—the one closest to the icing you’ll find in shelf-stable cans and supermarket pastry cases—look toward American buttercream, but then veer away from butter and use vegetable shortening instead.
