For years I used this mix of extracts in my buttercream icing & everyone loved it:
1 part vanilla (whatever measure you want to use be it teaspoon, Tablespoon, cup or quart etc)
1/2 part butter
1/4 part almond
I always use 2 Tablespoon of this mixture in each batch of icing using 2# of powdered sugar. I know that sounds like a lot but try it and see if you don't agree. If you don't like that much cut down to 1 1/2 or even just 1 Tablespoon.
Some people don't like the almond so if you'd rather sub some lemon or orange extract.
You need at least 3 flavors to make a wonderful complex flavor that people will love.
