What brand of icing is used for the cookie cakes that are made by the Great American Cookie Co.?

Question

Does anyone know the brand of icing that is used by the Great American Cookie Co.? Is it their own brand or do they outsource it and can it be purchased for personal use?

Answer 1

if I'm not mistaken its just a butter-cream icing but it could also be a royal icing but as for the brand I'm not sure. i use to be a manager at one like 2 yrs ago and i cant remember the actually brand. if you really like the icing call your local GAC store and see if they will sell you a bucket of icing or something. we use to receive it in gallon buckets, and now that i think of it i think the brand was a company brand like a GAC factory brand...but who knows i could be wrong. but here is an easy buttercream icing reciepe

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, and vanilla. Blend in the sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the milk, and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Keep icing covered until ready to decorate.



and here is one for royal icing

*2 large egg whites (or substitute powdered egg whites)

3 cups confectioners' sugar

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Combine the egg whites and confectioners' sugar in a medium-size mixing bowl and whip with an electric mixer on medium speed until opaque and shiny, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the lemon juice, this will thin out the icing. Beat for another couple of minutes until you reach the right spreading consistency for the cupcakes.

im pretty sure its the buttercream though
