Babies: 9 - 12 Months

NBR. Cake decorating icing advice needed!

To all the bakers out there, I need any tips you may have.

I will be making DS's bday cake this week (a frog) and will be decorating with a star tip (wilton triple and size 18).

I have only ever made buttercream icing using only butter, not shortening.  But also have never needed it to be a decorating consistency.

Do I really need to use shortening in my recipe as well?  Does it change the taste too much? Any awesome recipes beyond your typical buttercream?
