Thanks for the tutorial! I don't have popcorn salt but I do like to add salt to my icing. What I do is take my pinches and dissolve them in a teaspoon or 2 of hot water and then add it in with my vanilla.

Thank you so much. Appreciated watching you make the icing.

This is my new favorite buttercream. Tastes awesome and is the smoothest ever! Thanks for sharing!

Love this recipe I have that's the only buttercream I use it's work's very good for me I live in the US Virgin Islands and nothing else work's better for me.

It was smooth but I could not get past the taste. Like I dipped into a can of Crisco. Sorry, will be ditching this recipe

On my last visit to the US, I took some hi-ratio shortening back with me. It makes this frosting even more amazing. I love it! I've never achieved such a beautiful consistency in a frosting. Ingredients do matter!

For those who don't like the taste, I would recommend playing around with the flavorings. I put in the following: clear vanilla liquid, butter/vanilla essence, cherry essence, almond essence. They are just enough to give a depth of flavor, but it's not like you would think it tastes like cherry or marzipan due to the almond.
