I'm from Colombo.Here we cant find vegetable shortenings.if we do we have to buy it from online and wait til it comes to here.so its really dificult.so anyone got any idea for making white buttercream icing.i've done swiss meringue buttercream most of the time.but it makes light yellowish look.when we make red velvet cake its not really bright looking like shortening used buttercream.i bought Wilton White White colour to lighten the icing but it doesnt make big different in colour either.how cani get a pure white icing without shortenings.
