Hi...how do you get a rustic box look from buttercream? Do you spread the darker color around in random spots and then smooth out when icing and then use a cookie scribe tool to etch?


I cannot visualize the design you are describing, so no help here.

another way if using crusting butter cream after using a fork or whatever for the texturing and it's crusted, dust it with cocoa --
but otherwise yes adding piped lines of darker colored icing before smoothing is good way -- you could dust after that too --
I think you could gently dust on cold Swiss meringue icing too --
