Caramel Buttercream Frosting (For Everyone, Including Vegans!) image

I found this recipe at Allrecipes (submitted by LenoreRockchild) and I used it to modify an Isa (best vegan chef ever!) cupcake recipe, Fauxstess Cupcakes. I am currently trialing how this recipes freezes and I will update when I see how it goes.
