YES! I know what did it. Not the icing but the darn dye in the party napkins they used to wipe his face off with. Had the same thing happen to one of my customers at her little one's one year old's birthday party. I went carefully over all the ingredients in the cake and the IMBC and the mother confirmed that the baby had had them all before but without a rash. I asked when it happened and she said right after we wiped her mouth off. I asked what they used to wipe her down with and it was the party napkin. BINGO. She said that it didn't take long before the rash disappeared and didn't come back. I think this is your problem as well. It's the dye not the icing.
: I made a large cake yesterday for a one year old. Also made him a small smash cake. When I got to church today everyone who was at the party began telling me about how the little boy was allergic to my icing. Apparently he was having a good time smearing the icing all over his face. They first noticed his face starting to get red and they wiped him off. Shortly after that he broke out in hives all over his face. The cake was a plain white cake and the icing was white buttercream made with Crisco, meringue powder, powdered sugar, water, and flavoring. Any suggestions as to white might have caused his outbreak?
