What is the best way to achieve a ivory colored buttercream - will use a crisco based buttercream due to the fact it will be a summer wedding?

Wilton colors has a great ivory in their colors.

Well ok..that was like a duh, for some reason I was just in the thinking that I might have to add cream cheese or some other ingredient, oh what a dork I am. 140 kids a day at school is getting to my brain. Thank you Tonedna

Add more vanilla until you get the color you want. It will taste great.

i use the wilton ivory color in my buttercream and fondant also.. i use clear vanilla also..

I just use plain, brown vanilla. It turns white BC a beautiful shade of ivory.

I use Mexican vanilla and no need to use color to achieve ivory
