I would like to know if I can use royal icing to do a transfer? If so do I do it the same way as a fbct? Please let me know how to do it.

You're talking about doing color flow. I've never done an fbct, but I think it's the same concept. You place your picture with parchment on top. Outline with stiff royal icing, then fill with thinned down royal icing. HTH

I think that when it's dry (let it dry well!) you would be placing it face-up, as opposed to the FBCT in which the transfer gets reversed.

Doing a royal icing transfer you will not be able to cut through it either as the FBCT stays soft and you can cut through it. But you can do it with royal just make sure you thin your royal icing to flood the spots.

Thanks everyone. I guess I'll just use the fbct this time.
