I generally use thicker drums for my cakes. I would get a stronger base. Or, you could add a little corn syrup to your recipe.
I suggest you try some of the recipes on this site in the recipe section. There are many to choose from that taste & handle much better.
Adding either corn syrup or piping gel is very helpful. Another thing is adding a tablespoon or so more shortening or butter *and* flavoring. Then, mix it for up to 5 minutes on low speed. No, you will not over mix it. It will be much smoother and easier to work with
