I am looking for a certain type of Paint that I think you can buy at Michaels that you can use on "show" cakes instead of using royal icing.It is a thick paint that that you can actually put in icing bags and decorate your cakes with. Does anyone know what this is called? It would be greatly appreciated. Dinah

You mix it up the same way you would if you were doing a wall and then you put it on the foam just like you would royal ice and smooth it .. The only thing is your going to have to Sand it with Sand Paper once it gets hard to make it smooth... Hope this helps...
