So Much Buttercream, So Many Treats

Smooth or Swirl?

Anyway you frost them, cupcakes are yummy. With Wilton's ready-to-use decorator icing, you can ice them smooth for a simple look, or make fun swirls with a piping tip like 1M. Tint your icing in soft or bold colors to coordinate with any special occasion, and don't forget to add sprinkles on top to make them irresistible to everyone.

Your Cake is Your Canvas

White buttercream creates a great foundation for piping pretty designs on layer or tiered cakes. Start by smooth icing it with a straight spatula or the cake icer tip 789. Now you've got the perfect surface to create your very own version of cake art.

Ruffle and Rosettes Cake

Wavy ruffles of icing decorate the sides of this pretty layer cake, while large rosettes stand out on top. All were done using our ready-to-use Decorator Icing tinted with gel icing colors. Use a petal tip to create the ruffles all around the side. Switch to a star tip, then pipe the rosettes on top. Simple techniques, stunning results.

Great substitute for homemade...little sweet
4 Stars
Great substitute for homemade...little sweet
I bought this for my son's birthday cake because I didn't have time to make icing from scratch. I will a bit skeptical because I have never used bought icing before besides Betty Crocker, and I particularly do not like icing in general. This covered his multilayered cake well. It also made a great buttercream icing frozen transfer. If you have a dry climate just make sure you don't leave it sitting to long or it will start to harden. I put it in the fridge after I was done so that the transfer wouldn't get soft. It was a bit on the sweet side for me, almost too sweet. If I do eat frosting it tends to be whipped, so please take that into consideration. I have lots leftover which is fine because it allows me to work on my decorating skills, and the price was great. Overall I would buy it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great with Wilton's Dessert Decorator Plus
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2017
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
I picked up this icing for my holiday cakes and cupcakes and I am really impressed and it tastes great too. There is no palm oil like Betty Crocker now uses that effects the icing flavor.

I am a novice baker and I really enjoyed using this icing on my Thanksgiving cupcakes which I decorated with Wilton's Dessert Decorator Plus also sold here on Amazon.

This icing is thick and creamy and easy to work with and can be colored very easily with Wilton's icing colors.

I will definitely purchase this again since it is enough icing for 60 cupcakes and lasts 4 weeks stored in the fridge.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent frosting!
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2013
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
I purchased the Wilton White decorating frosting to ice and decorate 2 cakes for a birthday party that I didn't have time to make a batch of homemade buttercream frosting for. I read lots of reviews for the product before purchasing and I was nervous based on the number of negative reviews it got for not tasting great. Ultimately I decided to take a chance and give it a try and I am so happy I did. The frosting tasted absolutely wonderful and was so easy to work with both in icing the cakes and using it to pipe decorations onto my cakes. When time for the party rolled around my cakes were a huge hit. Everyone loved how good they looked and even more so how great they tasted.

After I made the 2 cakes for the party I froze the remaining icing for 3 weeks and then defrosted it and iced/decorated a third cake and it tasted just as good as the first two. So it keeps well and remains great tasting and easy to use even after being frozen for weeks.

I would definitely recommend and use this product again in the future!

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well, Great Tool for Decorating Cakes
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2016
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
Pros: easy to use, predictable, much whiter than my homemade buttercream, not overly sweet (surprisingly!), and I used it to pipe words and form buttercream rosettes. I tried making my own decorator icing and it didn't turn out, probably because I used too little sugar, so I turned to the Wilton.

Cons: Must use up the open container within 4 weeks, price seems expensive, but Amazon's pricing is better than the store's. The icing will not taste homemade, but I make my own fillings and overall icing, then just use the Decorator icing just for finishing touches and accents.

Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2016
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
Thus is the first time I have purchased frosting. I have always made my frosting as I find it always tastes better. This product may have changed my mind. The flavor still will never compare to home made frosting. Howecer, the consistency, the ease of use, and flavor is everything you would expect from this leader in cake supplies.

I was not dissapointed in this product as it is easy to pipe and tastes just like store bought cakes. Probably because it is from the same manufacturer.

If you are looking for quality frosting with a major ease of use. Look no further as this will cut your decorating time in half and clean up time is next to nothing.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love the Wilton Decorator Icing
Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2015
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
I love the Wilton Decorator Icing! I've always made my own or bought the canned premade icing until I bought this tub. I used it last night on some cupcakes and they turned out wonderful! When I made my own icing, I could never really get the just right consistency and the store bought was always stiff. I colored it with a pink Wilton gel coloring and it blended well. Also, I used it to frosting the cupcakes and pipe decorations on them and the consistency was great doing both. When I figured the cost of the premade canned icing to the cost of this tub- I found I was actually saving money by buying this. And, the taste isn't half bad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect every time
Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2016
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
I took a Wilton cake class many years ago. The instructor taught us how to make our own buttercream but it will have tiny balls of oil that will clog your Wilton tip. It only adds time when making your own frosting. So we always buy this. It is ready to be colored or used for writing or flowers. You may want to water it down with two tablespoons of water for any other decorating. The consistency of this frosting never changes. It is always smooth and easy to use. It is cheaper to buy in bulk in this size. You can easily do two to three cakes with this tub. Buttercream is our family's favorite so the left over frosting will always go to use. You do have to refrigerate it after opening.

1.0 out of 5 stars Artificially sweetened horriblely tasting lard
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2018
Color: Large WhiteVerified Purchase
Yes...you get a bunch of frosting. The downside is that it tastes like artificially sweetened lard. It's not firm enough to use for decorating cookies...doesn't harden....would definitely not slather a cake with it. Can't imagine wanting to inflict this horrible tasting lard on anyone. Ended throwing the entire tub out(my SIL and I actually argued about whose garbage it should go in,lol!)First experience with Wilton...thought they would have some expertise...but,I was mistaken.
