How do you get icing to make the dripping look? What type of frosting do you use?

Can you post a pic showing what you mean by "dripping look"?

My guess is that we are talking about ganache

That's what I figured was probably being asked about, but I've been on here long enough not to assume.

I have a german chocolate cake in my photos and I just used a square of melted baking chocolate. You could probably use candy melts or ganache also.

I warm up a can of 'good' canned frosting till it's runny and slowly pour it from the center out and when I get close to the edge I do this very very carefully as to not get too much to drip and add a bit more if it needs more of a drip, too much and it looks like melty stripes. Good Luckicon_smile.gif
