Thanks littlebigmomma for pointing out my recipe!! 
Hi vickymacd!! The lemon juice cuts out some of the sweetness of the buttercream. You can't taste the lemon. The popcorn salt is a fine grain salt so it's easier to blend in the buttercream. The cornstarch works as a stabilizer...the buttercream holds up very well in the heat. This was the best recipe that I have tasted for a all Crisco buttercream. 
I do my white buttercream by using the 1/2 crisco 1/2 butter recipe and add the wilton white to it. This makes it snow white. You don't have to add much just a little at a time until you get the whiteness you want.
if you look in the food coloring section at michaels or where ever you buy your food coloring they have a pure white color to make your buttercream pure white or to make your other colors lighter if you add too much color. I use this with the recipie that is half butter half crisco. It works great.
If you're using all crisco and still getting an off color, it may be your water. The minerals in tap water can discolor a pure white icing. Try distilled water, not spring water and see if that works.
