For a richer flavor, use European-style butter with a higher fat content. Sifting the confectioners' sugar is crucial for achieving a smooth and lump-free frosting. Adjust the amount of milk to reach your preferred consistency. Add more for a thinner frosting, less for a thicker one. Experiment with different extracts and flavorings, such as almond, lemon, or peppermint, to customize your buttercream. To achieve a pure white frosting, use clear vanilla extract and vegetable shortening instead of butter.
