I don't like crisco in by icing? I'm in search for an icing that you can decorate on that's smooth. Are there any store bought ones that would work? I want a smooth cake w/out the lard in the icing or too much butter.

Crisco is not lard. Lard is an animal product and Crisco is a vegetable product (which is now trans-fat free).

For Crisco free recipes try one of the meringue buttercreams, or a hi-ratio b/c (no greasy mouth feel):

For purchased icing, Wilton has canned buttercream and also a boxed whipped icing.
