I'm not sure what it's called, but I have seen cakes where people have drawn flowers on fondant, then brushed the icing with a paint brush. Can this be done on buttercream or other icings? I am making a cake with chocolate icing for my sister and would like to try this technique. If I froze the iced cake would that work better?
The technique is called brushed embroidery. Here's a link to a discussion about it: http://forum.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-438513-brushed.html+embroidery
Here's the link to the Wilton instructions: http://www.wilton.com/decorating/basic/brush.cfm
