Decorator's Icing

2 pounds powdered sugar

1 1/4 C. crisco

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 C. water

1 tsp vanilla

a few drops almond and/or butter flavoring

Beat 10 minutes, depending on your mixer, until light and fluffy.

A little water may be added to thin out, but not milk.

Decorators often use this when temperature is a concern. Butter

melts at a lower temp, and won't hold up outside in the summer,

for instance.
