I have a a great frosting recipe that comes out white.
It was my mum's and is American measurements, but I think you can find a way to convert it.
1 1/2 stick of butter
1 pound of icing sugar
Beat the beuuter, gradullay add in icing sugar. If it seems to thick add a tablespoon or two of milk. I awlays add the milk one tablespoon at time.

By making your own buttercream you will end up with a pale yellow colour, it will not be pure white. I think you can buy tubs of ready made icing/frosting in larger supermarkets, they might do a white version. You can also buy it online on various cake decorating websites.
