This recipe was made from trial and error. I made two mixtures of buttercream. One with salted butter which was too buttery (salty) and one with unsalted butter which was still too sweet. So I combined the two and it became the best buttercream I’ve ever tasted. I use this recipe for all of my cake orders and it is a hit every time!!!
