    I learned from Global Sugar Art to use popcorn salt in buttercream frosting to cut the sweetness. Not regular salt for it is to grainy. I hope this helps. I also shorting and butter flavoring to get the butter taste because my grandson couldn’t eat milk products. It taste great. I am not trying to take anything away from this video for it is definitely informative!

    Thanks. I made the wisk attachment error on my first attempt some years ago, and ended up ganking my kitchen aid stand mixer - the whisk was putting waaay too much stress on the unit's spindle. So I wish I'd seen you video earlier. I also did not know of the 10x sugar rating, so that helps a lot too. Thank you so much. A very useful and informative video.
