Thank you for the wonderful recipe and structured video, your instructions were easy to follow and the cake I decorated suited my 5 year old’s solar system party perfectly.

In reply to Kim. Hi Kim! The icing will look dark grey at first but after about 30 min or so in the refrigerator it darkens to black. It just takes a little time for the color to develop. To fix it, you can add a little more powdered sugar or cocoa powder to thicken it back up. Hope that helps!

Hi, I am not getting black colored icing – gray at best and now it’s way too soft. How do I fix this? Thanks!

In reply to Gretchen. Hi Gretchen! As long as you can achieve these colors with that icing this technique should work great!

Yay, Tess! I’m so happy this tutorial was a hit! If the buttercream you’re using for the splatter isn’t white enough, I would recommend using an icing whitener to make the buttercream white before splattering. I love AmeriColor Bright White for this: https://amzn.to/3GbmIPl

Hi!
This is incredible! Just finished the final colored frosting. Was intimidated to commit to the coloring, but once you’re in it, it’s kinda hard to mess up! So cool and beautiful.

My question: my buttercream splatter seems yellow/cream and not a nice white. Any tips?

Thank you!!

Hi Caitlin! That birthday cake sounds incredible! Your daughter is one lucky girl. The angled spatula I’m using in this tutorial is 13-inches (this one: https://amzn.to/3uqlVpH) but you can use any size for this look.
