Global Sugar Art Black Buttercream Frosting – Firm Cake & Cupcake Icing, 16 oz Tub

Bold, ready-to-use color for effortless decorating

Global Sugar Art’s Midnight Black Buttercream is a smooth, firm icing designed for cake decorating without the need for gel color mess. Packed in a 16 oz resealable tub, it delivers a rich black shade straight from the tub, making it ideal for birthday cakes, smash cakes, cupcakes, and dessert boards. The frosting’s durable yet spreadable texture helps you achieve clean coats and dramatic swirls with minimal effort.

Flexible decorating with professional results

Whether you’re spreading a classic layer, piping delicate borders, or layering rosettes, this frosting holds its shape while still offering a creamy, indulgent mouthfeel. For firmer piping—perfect for flowers and precise borders—you can add ½ to ¾ cup powdered sugar per 16 oz of frosting and beat on low until smooth. For a richer homemade flavor and lighter, whipped texture, blend in 4 tablespoons of semi-soft butter and 1 cup powdered sugar.
