Making Buttercream & Storing It

Good morning!

 

Just a general question....after making 24 cups of BC icing last night (phew i'm tired) and cleaning up the powdered mess in my kitchen (oh lord)...i came to thinking.  How does everyone else do it? 

 

Do you make a ton of BC icing and store it for future cakes??  What are your tips for making bc and keeping it simple?  Especially for wedding cakes depending on the size of it, you need a ton of icing....

I make my buttercream in 5 qt batches.  My recipe stores at room temp for 2 weeks.  If I don't think I'm going to use it within that time I freeze it.
