I would like a recipe for a "no crust" buttercream icing. Also, a good recipe for one that will stand up to high humidity would be appreciated!

For this you want to use a product called Stay Ice its a powder you put right in to your frosting mix.. Its a stablizer and will help with the humidity so your icing does not melt.. Now that dose not mean that you can place the cake in the sun...


1 1/2 cups Sweetex shortening
2 lbs powder sugar
1 Tablespoon Stay Ice
2 teaspoons Vanilla or flavoring of choose

Mix it all together just like you would your frosting recipe..

Hi
You could also use meringue powder, couple teaspoons. The reason I say that. Is I live in the south pretty humid here.

Is that really only 2 Cups of powdered sugar?

Does anyone have Anotnia's icing recipe? I keep reading about it but can't find the recipe.
