Janet,
There are many buttercreams out there. You can find all kinds of recipes!! As for some recipes (like Wiltons) that use 1/2 butter 1/2 crisco, it does hold up well for decorating like an all crisco one---the main difference is with humidity and temperature. Here in TX, I can't use anything with butter in the warmer months b/c it does not hold up well and will melt off a cake!!
I often times use the 1/2 butter, 1/2 crisco Wilton's buttercream. It works fine to make decorations. Sometimes my hands will make it too soft, so I just stick it in the fridge to firm up for a little bit. No problems!

OMgosh! I was wondering if I was the only one with hot little hands that this happened to! LOL. I have this problem every time.
