I'm making frosting can i use something other that cream of tater?

Answer 1

yes. I work as a cake decorator, and i've never made frosting that incorporates cream of tartar....i like this recipe
* 1/3 cup butter
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 pound (3 1/2 cups) sifted confectioners sugar
* 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
Cream butter, salt, and vanilla, beating until light and fluffy. Add sugar gradually, beating after each addition. Add 3 tablespoons milk, beating until smooth. Beat in more milk until desired spreading consistency is reached.

I think cream of tartar is just a thickener. If you don't use it, your frosting will be a little more like icing. Could be better!
