Notes
- This frosting can be piped with only a large piping tip, the smaller one will get blocked with the sprinkles.
- For longer storage, refrigerate for up to two weeks or freeze for up to two months. Always let the frosting come to room temperate and re-whip before use.
- If you want a themed cake, like for a baby shower or holiday, simply add different colors of sprinkles to your icing. For example, blue or pink for a baby shower, green and red for Christmas, black and orange for Halloween, etc.
