If my buttercreme frosting has a yellow tint to it How can you dye it white?

Buttercream frosting or icing naturally has a cream colour from the butter in it. The more air beaten into it, the paler it will be, and the softer it will be. The yellow colour of pure butter is naturally stronger if the cows producing the milk are grass fed rather than grain fed. If a pure white frosting or icing is wanted, do not use butter or make a buttercream, but the creamy flavour will be missing.
