Can the upside down method be done with wax paper?

Sometimes I get so excited I
BUMP
myself!

Funny you should ask....I did a sort of experiment today, because I was wondering the same thing. I did the method with both wax and parchment paper and the parchment paper was much better! I had a hard time pulling the wax paper off without it pulling on the icing and it made holes in the top. The parchment paper didn't do that at all. I was actually amazed by how well it (the parchment) did work.

Thanks so much! I guess I'll try it tomorrow. That is not the answer I wanted.
I wanted to try it now, now, now.

Did you use just parchment or silicon coated parchment?

I used the only parchment I had---from Wilton. I'm assuming that's not silicon coated. (I used the last of my parchment, so I can't check the box )

I think the Wiltons is silicon coated. I have like 4 boxes of it because I always forget I have abox. So unorganized.

The shiny side of freezer paper works great too!

thanks so much for the tips. Going out in the am will get parchment-shpuld it be silicone coated?
