here's the House BC:
House Buttercream
Pure white buttercream, ideal for mixing with colors, from fluorescent pink to muted green. This recipe uses High Ratio shortening, which can be found at any good cake decorating supply store; it does not affect the taste, but it does affect the buttercreams ability to accept color. If you cant find high ratio shortening substitute regular shortening, but use candy colors to tint your buttercream to avoid tiny beads of unblended color. House Buttercream can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks if tightly covered.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, stir together:
  6 cups confectioners sugar
  1/2 tsp salt
  1 tsp vanilla extract
With a whisk attachment, add and whip at low speed:
  1 cup boiling water (3/4 cup on hot days)
Whip until smooth and cool. Add and whip until smooth:
  2 3/4 cups high ratio vegetable shortening
  6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) slightly chilled butter, cut into 1 inch pieces
Increase the speed to medium-high. Whip until light, fluffy, and doubled in volume (10-20 minutes). The buttercream will almost fill a 5-quart mixing bowl.

Yield: 9 1/2 cups



and the Kayes BC i'll have to email you if you want it. its an image file, and too big to attach to the forum. pm me you email address if you would like it and i'll send it to you.

i prefer Kayes BC to the house BC, Kayes is an IMBC and tastes wonderful.
