Can I use buttercream instead of Royal icing?

[@rosylira8985]

Ermoso tu trabajo, se puede poner plantillas en chantilly?

[@christinebaker7051]

Great demonstration n tips! And English too! Trying to make a Faberge egg cake. Very difficult!lol. I'm thinking stenciling will be 'daintier' than fondant moldings. Many thanks!

[@zoesfancycakes]

+Rashid Juma Juma Thanks for watching!

[@BlackCat_2]

Awesome and so lovely. :) I can also appreciate that it is probably not as easy as you make it look having tried something similar on polymer clay with softened polymer clay that I mixed with liquid clay. :) It didn't work out quite like I had hoped. Maybe I will have to try again. :) - Heidi

[@zoesfancycakes]

Thanks Heidi, I guess the more your practice the easier it gets :)

[@robertrozzi5977]

HELP. Im trying to Candle drip a bundt cake that is NOT Fondant first, it seems like the Royal Icing is thinning down as it runs down the side. Does the candle drip Royal Icing ever get hard, or just dries to the touch?

[@yousritasocute943]

Great video, just a question is it better to use royal icing or butter cream ?

[@zoesfancycakes]

Thanks for watching! I think this is more down to preference, both work well. The best thing to do would be to test both out and see which you prefer.

[@lenaugust2856]

Lovely Video.It is really an attractive looking wedding cake. Please can you tell me where I can purchase such Stencils for wedding cakes. Are expensive ? looking forward to your other videos - Blessings & Thanks Len

Can I use it on whipped cream cakes?

[@gladystesillo34]

You doing over fondant or buttercream. Thanks

[@zoesfancycakes]

Fondant for this one I think

[@cakescupcakes6703]

how do you get the royal icing to a black colour does the royal icing have to thick or thin ty

[@zoesfancycakes]

+Cakes Cupcakes You don't want your royal icing to be too thin / watery when using a stencil as it will get underneath the plastic on the stencil. You have to find a balance of thickness to see what works, I would recommend testing it on a flat piece of fondant first just to check it works. You could dye your royal icing black using food colouring, I use sugarflair colours, but it can sometimes make the consistency a bit weird. It might be better seeing if you can purchase it pre dyed. Hope that helps x

[@user-sc8jk2kb3v]

Hello! I am a beginner. Tell, please, that this for weight that you apply on a cliche? Maybe you will give the recipe?

Zoes Fancy Cakes Does the royal icing crack after it dries? I'm nervous about using royal icing with my stencil the night before. Especially because I will not be able to stack the cakes until I get to the venue.

[@naomihaugh3245]

I am nervous about this to.

[@alliep512]

Is this cake covered in buttercream or fondant?

[@zoesfancycakes]

+Allie P This cake is covered in fondant before adding the stencil royal icing :)
