About DECORATING CAKE ICING, BLACK
Great Value Decorating Cake Icing in Black is a pre-made buttercream-style decorating icing from Walmart's Great Value brand, intended for piping, borders, and cake decoration. The formulation uses sugar and corn syrup as the primary sweeteners, with a vegetable shortening base (palm oil, hydrogenated palm oil, mono- and diglycerides, polysorbate 60) and an additional vegetable oil blend (palm oil, palm kernel oil, soy lecithin). At 417 calories per 100 grams with 66.67 grams of carbohydrates and 25 grams of fat, this is a high-calorie decorating product used in small quantities.
The black color is achieved through a blend of food dyes: Blue 2 Lake, Red 40 Lake, and Yellow 6 Lake — a combination that produces black when balanced appropriately. The shortening component contains hydrogenated palm oil, which is a source of trans fats; the degree of hydrogenation affects trans fat content, and consumers monitoring trans fat intake should check current packaging. Stabilizers and preservatives include potassium sorbate, citric acid, modified potato starch, and medium chain triglycerides. Natural antioxidants rosemary extract and tocopherols extend shelf stability of the fat components. Soy lecithin in the oil blend constitutes a soy allergen. No dairy, wheat, eggs, nuts, or other major allergens are present. This product is suitable for vegan and gluten-free decorating applications.
