Ready-to-Use Red Icing 400 g
A colored icing ready for piping that hardens as it dries.
Renshaw ready-to-use red icing can be used directly, with no preparation or food coloring required: piping, stencil decoration, covering cookies or small cakes. The color is even as soon as the jar is opened.
Once dry, it hardens for a firm, clean finish. The 400 g jar covers borders and details on several cakes: Christmas, Valentine's Day and red berry decorations.

Frequently asked questions
Does the icing need to be loosened before piping?
It is ready to use. For a more fluid topping on cookies, add a few drops of water and mix until you reach the desired consistency.
How long does it take to harden?
Allow a few hours in the open air for the surface to dry to the touch, and overnight for thick decorations to dry completely.
Can several colors be mixed?
Yes, icings from the range can be mixed together to create intermediate shades.
