Royal Icing Paint

Simple Royal Icing

An extremely sugary icing that dries very stiff! Used for attaching decorations or as it's own decoration. Often used to decorate cookies.

HORIZONTAL STRIPE QUARTER INCH MESH STENCIL
Horizontal stripes on a cake are truly the most frustrating decorating there is. Never deal with imperfect, time consuming fondant stripes again! Stencil them stripetastic! Stripes measure a delicate 1/4" wide. Total striped area measures 5-3/4" by 12" wide. Tutorial for Mesh Stenciling in Royal Icing is included. With any mesh stencil with large open areas, we suggest adding liquid whitener gel (bright white) to the stenciling royal icing for any color besides black, or use our Mesh Stencil Icing to create an opaque color. Mesh Stencils are similar to traditional Acrylic stencils, only they allow for finer detail. The technique is similar to traditional stenciling with Royal Icing. A photo tutorial is included with each Mesh Stencil set.

EDIBLE FABRIC SHEETS WHITE
The Evil Cake Genius is still flipping out over how amazing this stuff is! Super easy to use 8-1/2" x 11" sheets behave just like real fabric, but they're edible!
Use them to make swags, bows, fringe, flags, anything that you want to flow like fabric. Stencil on them with any of our Mesh Stencils using Royal Icing, and the stenciling will flex and bend with the edible fabric and won't crack (insert Evil Gleeful Cackle here). You can even print on these if you're super fancy and have an edible printer.

Ingredients are: Water, Corn Starch, Corn Syrup, Cellulose, Corn Syrup Solids, Vegetable Oil, Gum, Sugar, Fructose, Modified Starch, Glycerine, Hydrocolloid, Polysorbate, Vanilla, Artificial Color, Citric Acid. Kosher. Not suitable for vegans.

Can be colored with powdered lusters or petal dust. Also works when airbrushed, simply allow the airbrush paint to dry before handling.
