Vegan American Buttercream

Makes approximately 1.4kg/3lb of buttercream. Should be enough to fill and crumb coat a 3 layer 8-inch cake (though I have managed to fill, crumb coat, and fully decorate an 8-inch cake and decorate 12 cupcakes all from one batch so it depends on how generous or skimpy you are with filling and crumb coating)
