I use the Wilton class recipe that works really well.

1 cup shortening
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tbsp. water
4 cups 10x sugar
1 tbsp. meringue powder

makes a stiff consistency. add 1 tbsp. to get medium const. add 2 tbsp. for thin const.

I just tried sugarshacks bc recipe (in the recipe section) this weekend and it is amazing how smooth your icing is.

I use the same recipe with the exception of the vanilla. I use a little bit of butter flaver and almond extract instead of vanilla. If I am doing a strawberry cake I add strawberry extract...lemon cake-lemon extract. You get my point. HTH

Here's mine, smooths well, decorate well, tastes great! If you look in my gallery you can see how it looks, apart from the choc bc, it's the only recipe I use for frosting.
