This much should generously cover a two layer 8 inch round cake. I use this recipe all the time for my cakes. You can also add food coloring to the icing to color the whole cake or just for trim.?
Depends upon the icing; however, most frequently either the pecan or the walnut is used in icing (frosting) for cakes. Pecans are used in the icing for Carrot cakes, and walnuts are used in the icing for German Chocolate cakes.
Yes you can. I love cooking. I make cakes all the time. The icing will not dip in the hole if the cakes are close enough together. So that you can't see it on the outside, put icing on the edges so that you cant see the lines on the edge. A piece of cake!!
make vanilla and then put cocoa and white icing
Icing, frosting, or perhaps for some cakes a glaze.
Makes it more tasty :)
Ace of Cakes - 2006 Holidays on Icing was released on: USA: 28 January 2011
The best way to make icing balls for decorating cakes and pastries is to use a piping bag with a small round tip to create uniform and precise shapes. Simply squeeze the icing out of the bag in a circular motion onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then freeze the icing balls until they are firm enough to handle.
To stiffen icing for decorating cakes and cookies, you can add more powdered sugar or cornstarch to thicken it. You can also refrigerate the icing for a short time to help it firm up.
They re the same recipes for icing or frosting, just applied on larger or smaller cakes.
Use a Square Plastic Ziplock bag. Fill with frosting/Icing close and cut bottom corner of bag to meet piping need.
They had white icing on wedding cakes so I suppose so!
They usually use fondant
