What is the Wilton's Black that Cali4Dawn is talking about in her foot note(step 4)? Is it regular color paste or some kind of special black icing. I am confused because then she goes on and says it does not smudge as badly as homemade buttercream. Can someone please explain!!


TIA

I think she is talking about the tubes of different colored icing Wilton sells... I know I've seen them on the baking aisle with other 'decorating' stuff. The have threaded tops so you can attach tips with couplers.

ohh ok I know what it is. Thank you edencakes for your help.

no prob!

I've used my regular (all crisco) buttercream colored back with out any problem at all for the transfers.

I just did a Spongebob outlined with the black b/c icing and didn't have any problems.

The last tube of black that I brought was watery...couldn't figure that out.

Thanks everyone. Now I am gonna go buy the tube of black icing. Gonna try to make a Hot Wheels Logo(FBCT) for my sons birthday cake.
