Hi, is there a product known as Brite White. It is a an icing mixture that can be added to buttercream icing to make the icing lighter and fluffier. |

Maybe you're refering to "Dream Whip" by KRAFT? |

I've used Brite white to lighten my buttercream. I bought it at Micheals. It's next to the colors. |

I do believe the OP is referring to a different product. Its an icing base of some kind. Its not the white coloring that I think you are describing. |

What I have is called Icing color White-White. It's in a 2 oz. Bottle and it says it Whitens or lightens icing. But it doesn't make the icing more fluffy So maybe you're looking for something else. |

Brite White is NOT the Wilton product called White-White. Brite White is very difficult to find (speaking from experience-my cake supply lady retired and wouldn't tell anyone where she ordered it from - she wanted to "sell" that information to other cake supply stores  )
Another local cake supply store did locate it and ordered it. It's made by Westco and distributed by BakeMark. It's an emulsifier that you add to your Buttercream - about 1 Tbsp per cup of Crisco. If you have a local cake supply store and they are interested in carrying it let me know - I can get the phone number for you. |

In your recipe for Buttercream Icing, it calls for Brite White. If I can't find this is there something else that I can substitute with? |

You might try to find an icing base called Angel White or National's Snow White icing base. I believe they are similar to Brite White. Basically Brite White is called a white chocolate fudge icing base (at least that's what is on the container). Unfortunately, it is very difficult to find.
Do you have a local cake supply store? If so ask them if they would be willing to purchase it. If so I can refer you to the owner of the store where I buy it and she would be happy to put your supplier in contact with the distributor. |

Brite white is an emulsifier to lighten the greasiness of a buttercream frosting. I haven't found it yet -- anyone know where to get it? Local cake stores don't have it and aren't sure where to order it. |
