This wedding cake frosting is very easy. Thin it with a little more water to ice the cake, or use a little less to make the decorations.
Ingredients
- 1 cup shortening
- ½ cup water
- 1 ½ teaspoons clear imitation vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
- 8 cups sifted powdered sugar, divided
Directions
Step 1
Combine shortening, water, vanilla, salt, and almond extract in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat until smooth and creamy. Gradually mix in 1/2 of the powdered sugar, then continue to mix for a minimum of 5 minutes (or preferably up to 10 minutes).
Step 2
Mix in remaining powdered sugar just until combined. Add additional water if needed to reach desired spreading consistency.
