My buttercream recipe always gets rave reviews!  My secret is that I don't use butter, I use Earth Balance sticks.  I use the Wilton BC recipe with 1/2 shortening and 1/2 Earth Balance sticks and it's awesome.  I can't eat dairy anymore, but butter has such a strong flavor itself that when I use the vegan 'butter' that has a very mild flavor the flavorings added really stand out and don't have to compete with the butter flavor. HTH!

thanks

well its looking better I used butter and all vanilla and left out the merguine powder beat it longer thanks very much

Good!  I find that it works even better if you can make it a day ahead and let the frosting set for several hours.  When you get ready to use it, stir it with a rubber scraper a few turns and it seems to knock out the air bubbles.

i was looking at all kinds of buttercream that isnt too sweet or buttery for a cake im doing tomorrow, for what you want i think Italian meringue buttercream might work. its like SMBC but more stable and sweats less, its also not too sweet. you can also try what sandra and jchuck mentioned, if its too buttery keep mixing until the flavor is gone heres a recipe for italian meringue buttercream, hope that helps a little bit https://sugargeekshow.com/recipe/italian-meringue-buttercream/
