Man, the search feature is pretty useless around here at the moment...no matter the topic, there's no forum hits??

Has anyone tried Americolor? I have the Wilton and they are OK.

LOVE the Americolor markers! They sat in a drawer for almost 2 years, but they still worked great when I pulled them out to use. I bought the set with something like 10 different color markers (I used them to write the months on my "year in cookies"). They've also lasted much longer than I thought they would without going dry. LOVE them!

I have the Wilton (not happy with at all.) and I have kopykake. Most of them worked well, but a few were dry and I couldn't get them to write on fondant.....any tips to make them work again?

Yes, go for the Americolor! Wilton's would be okay if the tip was designed better. I have the fine point and it's only fine if you write holding the pen totally vertical - who writes like that icon_confused.gif

And with Americolor you get alot more color choices thumbs_up.gif
