You can try stirring the buttercream with a spatula, sort of smushing it to remove some of the bubbles. It happens when too much air is incorporated into the icing.

Black icing requires a lot of black color-Americolor gel is best.

another option for black icing using less coloring ---

start w/ chocolate icing.

I just read a long thread about the bubbles that are cause by the new Crisco.

I second the suggestion to start with chocolate frosting to get black icing.....
