Bunny's recipe calls for "popcorn salt". You can find it in small containers at Wal-Mart in the spice/salt section. It really makes the icing taste so much better.
Another thing is the shortening. Some brands took the trans fats out, which has caused an issue with the icing sticking to the cakes. Many are using one of the Wal-Mart brands. You have to look at the ingredients list to know which is which, as there are 2 kinds & the cans look almost alike. Others are buying what's called "high ratio shortening", which is allot mroe expensive.
Good luck on your classes. It can be a fun hobby. If looking to do this as an in home business you must check with local regualtions, as many states do not allow food items to be produced out of homes.
The Wilton boards are packed with tons of good info & recipies. Take some time to read back thru them all. Copy/paste info is permitted.
