This clear piping gel is used to write on cakes or to draw designs on your cakes and cupcakes. You can color this piping gel any shade you want it to be. For example, If you want to make a blue-colored gel all you need to do is add some blue food color. Another use of this piping gel for cakes is to give a "crumb coat" to your cake prior to icing it. Yet another use is to apply it to your cake before you apply a layer of rolled fondant. Doing so will keep your fondant and cake from drying out. Includes 16 oz
