A Frosting Tip
If you have plain white or butter cream frosting on hand, you can jazz it up quickly by sprinkling a small amount of grape, strawberry, cherry or any other flavor of powdered drink into it. The frosting will have not only have a tart taste, but also look colorful.
Try using a little bit of paste food coloring instead of the water based food coloring for your frostings. This won't make it as runny.
