Help I'm addicted to Plastic icing

[Hosehead]

My sweet tooth started hurting but there was nout in the house. I couldn't be bothered to go and buy choccies and I dont want to gobble up my lindt cooking choccies. Then I espyed my cake decorating kit and inside i found three one kilo bags of Plastic icing. These are supposed to be rolled out and draped over cakes and coloured and decorated.
But I couldn't resist I tore open a bag and ripped a big chunk off and worked it soft and made little balls nom nom nom
If you had the My BB cake two weeks ago it's exactly the same cover icing minus the creme filling and sponge.
I think it comes from the same supplier.
I am now in serious trouble. That stuff is addictive. I'm half a bag down since last night. What do I do?:erm:

 

[Pooky]

That stuff is nasty!

Yeah...no...but yeah...no in fact its made me even more hungry for savoury things. Now I'm out of all kinds of stuff. I think it triggers a chemical response for compensation. I've gone on an eating binge. My fridge is almost empty.

Plastic icing is not butter icing FWIW

@pooky. Shruup. Is Yummy. Ask the lucky ones who ate caek.

Head over to south Bakels and pick yourself up a 15KG bucket

Do you bake cakes and decorate it - or is it your wife's kit?

 

[AthenianOwl]

WTF How can you become addicted to that... that stuff

It's my kit. I dabble in the pastry Arts. The ex wife couldn't fry an egg, never mind bake.

Cool. Takes you off potential Ekstasis list.

It's a 1400km drive.: I still have 2 more kilos in my kit which should last

 

[Hosehead]

I'll cure myself. I'll finish all the plastic icing in the house and not buy any more ever again. I'll only work with spun sugar and Royal icing which is an absolute pain to make.

Why don't you just go buy yourself a chocolate?

Why don't you just go buy yourself a chocolate?

Because the nearest shop is 12 km away./20 min round trip

The 2 kilo's should be enough to snack on during the drive.
It would work out to half a kilogram per 350Km or around half a kilogram every 3 hours.
On the return trip armed with 15 litres, you would not have to be nearly as frugal. You could enjoy a leisurely litre per hour.

Way too complicated...

Rather try this simple method using marshmallows, icing and a microwave:

lmao.
you could always hang around some wedding venues- crawl between the tables and snatch up the pieces the old ladies push aside on their plates.

That's like around the corner. Obviously you don't stay in a city.

That's close enough to walk... In fact you should run there as punishment for eating so much icing....

If it was cream cheese frosting then all is good but plastic icing? Really??
