I recently switched to using Vanilla buttercream. It's lighter than regular buttercream and has a lovely light flavor. It doesn't taste as sweet as reg buttercream(to me anyway)and it will crust.
1cp softened butter
1cp shortening
8cps powdered sugar
1/2 tsp salt(I use 1/4 tsp)
4 oz Int. Delight French Vanilla Coffee Creamer(I use fat free)
2 oz Whipping crm

I suggest an SMBC or IMBC. They do not crust whatsoever, but they smooth better than any crusting BC I have ever used.

Much nicer icing and tastes a LOT less sweet.
