To use, simply open the container. If the frosting has separated slightly, a gentle stir with a spatula or spoon can help restore its smooth texture. Apply the frosting directly to cooled baked goods using a spatula, knife, or piping bag. For piping, ensure the frosting is at room temperature for optimal consistency. It can be spread in swirls, dollops, or intricate designs depending on the desired effect. It adheres well to most cake and cupcake surfaces.
