re: Worried about textured buttercream melting on Wedding day.......

Good afternoon Karen, I live in Puerto Rico and for our hot and sometimes humid weather the recibe that we use most of the time is the shortening one. The recipe is: 8 cups powder sugar (sifted), 1/2 cup of milk (or you can use water), 1 cup vegetable shortening, 1 traspĆ³n clear vainilla, 1/2 teaspoon salt, & 1 teaspoon almond extra. Mix shortening, sugar, and half of the milk. Once they are well mix add the flavors and mix. If you want the frostin smooth add 2 tablespoon of milk at a time. Know you can add color. I hope this will help. This fronting es delicioso.
