It looks like a buttercream which would certainly be soft enough for a smash cake. I would just make a vanilla buttercream and use some colouring and/or flavouring.

is it the one with the number 1 on it. Looks like butter cream and no nozzle used. Good luck with getting your icing go that red always have trouble with that

Its buttercream. When you make the buttercream use kremelta instead of butter it will keep the icing white! I like to add pink colouring first then let it sit for a bit then start adding the red colouring. Hope that helps

Adding a bit of dark cocoa powder brings out the red in the red colouring. Brown colouring will also work. You will not get a true red but more with a ting of maroon. Just adding red colour will give you shades of pink.
