This is not so much a cheap thrill as a lazy way to cake decorate. Many of you are making lots of batches of Wilton Course 1 Butter Cream Icing and so you are using lots of shortening. I find that shortening is the one item I least like to measure, if you have been in class with me you know I like using the Crisco sticks because they are pre measured in a 1 cup portion. Of course, 1 cup is exactly the amount you need for 1 batch of icing and using a Crisco stick means I do not have to clean out that dirty shortening covered measuring cup!
Now Crisco has come out with a new 1 cup stick- you can now buy the one cup stick in butter flavor! Please remember if you use this to make your icing it will be yellow- but, it will also have nice butter flavor.
Here is the link from Crisco if you would like to learn about it. While you are there sign up for the Crisco emails, they will send you recipes and "cheap thrill" - coupons for their product!
