Sazzy please how is this different from recipe 1? It kind off looks the same to me.
ReplyDeleteShortening is not as sweet as butter/margarine, so it makes your buttercream not to be too sweet. Shortening also can withstand higher temperature so this makes your buttercream to be stiffer and holds the decoration.
