Title: Christmas Frosting/Sprinkles
Post by: Jenna on December 18, 2011, 09:00:12 PM
When decorating Christmas cookies or making Gingerman, which frosting/sprinkles do you use? This is for PA/TNA. Do you trust any mixes?

We use cake mate. I make my own icing but I would trust Cherrybrook Kitchen and Betty Crocker brands.

we use anything by betty crocker all the time....the only sprinkles i have ever used is the betty crocker brand that i can only find at superwalmart.  they are made by signature brands and they have all different kinds. we are severe p/tn/sesame.

Same here.  Cake Mate, Betty Crocker, Signature brands, are all signature brands, last I checked, but its been awhile.  I also trust Betty Crocker frosting and Pillsbury frosting.

Thank God (and our Admins!) for this site!

I made DS's birthday cake today, and it was so cold in the house that the frosting really didn't spread well, so I wanted to buy some decorations to hide the damage, LOL.  All I could find was Betty Crocker Decors by Signature Brands, and there's nothing on the website.  It's a holiday, so no customer service, either.

But who needs them when I have you all?  :heart:

I use Cake Mate sprinkles, and Cherrybrook Kitchen mixes.  Our peanut allergic, egg-allergic, wheat allergic, lentil-allergic daughter loves making the chocolate chip cookies with sprinkles :)

I use home-made royal icing. If you're just PNA/TNA, should be fine; you can make it with meringue powder, pasteurized eggwhites, or plain old eggwhites.
