Where to buy icing for writing on birthday cakes?

can anybody tell me where i can buy the icing that you can use to write a message on birthday cakes? do they sell it at supermarkets such as asda or tesco?

Answers:
You probably can find it in your local grocery store. Look near the cake mixes. It's in tubes, like toothpaste, and usually comes with little nozzles to use for making flowers, writing, stars, etc.
Asda doesn't sell it, but I think Tesco does. Any big supermarket with a bakery really.
Grocery Store, they sell it in a tube so you can write like a pen.
Yes, in the supermarket in the 'home baking' isle
yes they sell tubes of it at the supermarket. They come in different colors and the tube end is small enough to get a really nice letter printed from it.
Make your own easily and cheaply .. Icing sugar and water
Or royal icing Icing sugar and egg white
You SHOULD be able to buy it at any store that has the birthday candles and what not.
You're local grocery store should have it.
Usually here in the States (tesco is British, right?) there is a small section in the supermarket, on the same aisle as the baking mixes, pre-made cake frostings, flour, sugar, etc., where they have available tubes of the decorator frostings which either come with different shaped tips or for which tips are available for purchase. If you see boxes of birthday candles and/or decorative sprinkles, you're in the right area. Good Luck!
yeah just go to your local big supermarket , they'll have it near their flour and cake mixture stuff
most large supermarkets sell icing writing kits try also any local cake accessory shops u know the ones that sell cake boards etc.
i got one out of my local somerfields, I'm sure most supermarkets will have, just go to the bakery section of the store where they keep the icing flour, cake packets etc I'm sure you'll find it
sainbury's in the cake making section.
in any super market (king kullen)
I bought somw recently from Asda. On the same isle as flour and baking stuff (i imagine its probably located the same place which ever asda)
