I remember that I had read somewhere on one of the forum subjects (and I cannot find it now) about using real wall spackle as icing for covering dummy cakes. Do I remember that correctly? And if so, how would I use the spackle - straight from the tub, mix it with a little water, etc? Can anyone help?

can you reuse the styrofoam if you've applied hte BC directly on it? i read on a tutorial somewhere (can't remember where) that they covered the dummy with saran wrap so that they could reuse it later. is that necessary?
