A classical theorem of Frostman says that if $B$ is a Blaschke product (or any inner function), then its Frostman shifts ${B_w = (B - w)(1 - \overline{w} B)^{-1}}$ are Blaschke products for all $|w| < 1$ except possibly for $w$ in a set of logarithmic capacity zero. If $B$ is a Frostman Blaschke product, equivalently an inner multiplier for the space of Cauchy transforms of measures on the unit circle, we show that for all $|w| < 1$, $B_w$ is indeed another Frostman Blaschke product.

Keywords: Blaschke product, Frostman shifts, multipliers.
