Can you add sparkle dust to icing?
Yes, you can add sparkle/lustre dust to buttercream or royal icing. Simply add a little and mix well to create a shimmer. I have done this several times and unless you have a small amount of icing you will need a lot of the dust to really be able to see it.

How do you make white icing black?
To make a real black icing, take 2 cups of Wilton's ready-to-use buttercream, add 1/2 cup good quality cocoa (sift if it seems lumpy), 2 teaspoons of water, and 1 oz. Wilton black icing color. You will achieve a true, deep rich black color which is so popular for wedding cakes today, such as details for stringwork or embroidery work. For example, the Black Tie Affair Cake is topped with black buttercream cornelli lace. If you have added too much black color in the beginning and your buttercream seems to have somewhat of a bitter taste, I suggest adding either 2 tablespoons of cocoa or a flavoring such as cherry or orange, about 1 teaspoon, to 2 cups of icing.

How do you make buttercream with common household ingredients?
To make buttercream you will need 1/2 cup shortening, 1/2 cup butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 4 cups confectioners (powdered or 10-x) sugar, and 2 tablespoons milk. This will make about three cups of icing. In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and butter with an electric mixer. Add vanilla. Gradually add sugar, one cup at a time, beating well on medium speed. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl often. When all sugar has been mixed in, icing will appear dry. Add milk and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy. Keep bowl covered with a damp cloth until ready to use. For best results, keep icing bowl in refrigerator when not in use. Refrigerated in an airtight container, this icing can be stored 2 weeks. Rewhip before using.
What colors to you add to black to make grey icing?
You would not add any color to black to make grey icing, and once enough black coloring is added to reach a truly black icing, the only way to lighten it to grey would be to mix a tiny bit of the black icing into a great deal of white icing. The proper way to make grey icing is to simply add a very few drops of black to white icing to obtain the desired shade of grey.

How do you make frosting without butter?
Powdered (confectioner's) sugar is a basic ingredient to cream cheese frosting. Substitutions such as granulated table sugar, brown sugar or honey will not produce acceptable cream cheese frosting. In a pinch, it may be possible to process granulated white sugar in a blender or food processor until very fine. Then add a tablespoon of corn starch to each cup of very finely processed sugar to approximate powdered sugar.
