I would LOVE to know how to stencil on BC. Ive seen videos for stenciling on fondant but none for BC. Apparently there was a video on CC on how to do it but it no longer exists. Can anyone help???

Use a *Crusting* recipe.  Be sure it has dried (you lighhtly touch it and no icing comes off on your finger) before placing the stencil on.  Works like a charm :)

I stencil on SMBC all the time.  On this, you just have to  work quickly right out of the fridge,  while the buttercream is hard.  The first time I tried stenciling with buttercream, but prefered RI.

I typed in "Stenciling with buttercream" into you tube and I found a couple..They were very helpful.
