Perma Ice Icing-1 Quart. Magic Line Perma Ice® is ideal icing for decorating dummy cakes, show cakes, ice cream displays and more. It is a non-edible, artificial icing specially formulated for creating beautiful display cakes. It looks exactly like ice cream if you use an ice cream dipper(tint a bit off white with paint set number 35-550 or acrylic paint). It may be thinned with water to appear as a milk shake, ice cream topping, etc. Slowly whip Perma Ice, then put in a pastry bag with a large star tip. Pipe on artificial sundae or milkshake to look like whip cream. Roll Perma Ice into a ball, paint red with acrylic paint when dry and when that dries, put on the fake Perma Ice "whipped cream" to look like a cherry.

Most teams will bunt the ball toward the first-base line because the third baseman is charging hard; the second baseman then covers first. It is very important to get an out on this play. Lots of teams use the fake bunt and swing, or what is called the "slash. "

CONT

Slash bunt. This offensive play takes place when the defense is expecting a bunt and is charging hard prior to the pitch getting ready to field the bunt. Show bunt and when the defense charges pull the bat back with a choked up grip and put the ball in play, on the ground.
