RENSHAW - Icing
Ready-to-Use Black Icing 400 g
A ready-to-pipe colored icing that hardens as it dries.
Renshaw ready-to-use black icing can be used straight from the tub, with no preparation or food coloring required: piping, stencil decoration, or covering cookies and small cakes. The color is uniform as soon as the tub is opened.
Once dry, it hardens for a firm, clean finish. The 400 g tub covers the borders and details of several cakes: graphic outlines, lettering, and Halloween decorations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the icing need to be loosened before piping?
It is ready to use. For a more fluid topping on cookies, add a few drops of water and mix until you reach the desired consistency.
How long does it take to harden?
Allow a few hours in the open air for the surface to dry to the touch, and overnight for thick decorations to dry completely.
Can several colors be mixed?
Yes, the icings in the range can be mixed together to create intermediate shades.
