Royal Icing for Cookie Decorating The Sweet Adventures of Sugar Belle.

Cookie decorating is more than an adventure, it’s a journey. I’ve come a long way, and I feel like I’ve learned a lifetime of tips and information in just a few short years. I’ve this knowledge and experience to change and tweak some of my methods and recipes. My royal icing is the perfect example. Which brand of meringue powder do you prefer? By the way love all your cookies and have learned a lot from all your posts…looking forward to more of them. I am new to cookie decorating…just made my 12th batch but still have lots to learn between recipes for cookies and icing and techniques! Eventually, life changed as it tends to do, and I realized that most people will never ever need a four quarts of royal icing at once. So, here’s what that happens in my kitchen these days. It’s basi y the same except half as much, with a few minor tweaks. Don't be afraid to experiment by adding corn syrup, glycerin, or cream of tartar to the mixture. Use a fan for a smooth shiny finish. Royal icing can be affected by many variables. With a little time and patience, you will find your perfect match. I generally use the paddle attachment rather than whisk to mix the icing: A couple of years ago, I received an email from a reader who made royal icing flowers for a living. She gave me a few pointers each attachment affected the final product. What stuck with me most was her observation that icing mixed with a paddle does not separate as quickly as icing mixed with a whisk. I didn’t do any in-depth scientific experiments, but based on her knowledge and experience I gave it a try and liked the results. This doesn’t mean that on days when my paddles are dirty or lost that I won’t use a whisk, I just lean more toward the paddle these days. Continue adding the remaining water, little by little, until the icing reaches a thick, honey-like consistency. If you reach this BEFORE all of the water is gone, that’s okay.

To Decorate with Royal Icing.

I love shortbread and I like sugar cookies but a cookie that is both..'s heaven! This is the kind of icing that "dries" and s almost like a candy s on the cookie. When the icing is dry, store in an airtight container for up to a week. You can also keep the unbaked dough in the fridge for up to a week.. Who can resist making these that long? You have to use butter to get the right taste. Sometimes just for a different flavor I add a teaspoon or two of almond extract.

To Decorate Cookies with Royal Icing.

4.  Time to start decorating! The first step is to border the cookies. Do this by using the piping bag filled with icing. Squeeze the bag firmly and steadily to create your icing border, working counter-clockwise at the very edge of each cookie. Release pressure on the piping bag to cut off the flow of icing and complete the border. Allow the borders to set completely, 30 to 60 minutes, before filling in your outline (also known as flooding!). to: 1.  First, prepare your royal icing as directed here. Scoop some frosting in a piping bag fitted with a small round writing tip—this will be for piping borders on the cookies. Thin some of the reserved royal icing with water, one teaspoon at a time, until it is the consistency of cream—this will be for flooding and glazing the cookies later. If you wish to color your icing before piping and flooding, note that liquid food coloring is difficult to control and may the icing too runny. Many bakers prefer to use food-coloring paste instead! 6.  Using a small metal spatula, gently smooth any air bubbles or gaps until each cookie is completely glazed. Let the cookies stand for three minutes before adding any additional decorations like sprinkles or cans. Allow them to dry completely before storing.

Sugar Cookie Decorating 101.

Just wanted to highlight a little typo I found that I am sure you will want to know about – It’s in the Cookie Decorating presentation. About halfway down you wrote: Much better. Still pretty think but perfect for outlining. Before you start icing your cookie, just get a piece of wax paper or use a cookie sheet and practice using your icing bag. Practice making lines… dots… learning the texture and consistency of your icing and it looks. Next, you are going to want to ‘spill’ or ‘flood’ your cookie. So I made another batch of icing, the same way as before, only this time I added more milk to get a runnier consistency. When I flood I generally run a ribbon of icing around the edges then fill in the center a bit. If you flood your cookie completely, as in, have no dry space, there will be too much icing and it will overflow. I often quadruple this recipe and then divide up the mixture and add food color. When I am outlining and filling cookies I will a lot of one color with the “thicker” version of the icing, then add more milk to thin the icing down for filling. Thank you SO much for sharing this recipe. I do not like the taste of royal icing, even just a bit for borders. Your icing is perfect and tastes wonderful! I have always a similar recipe for the flooding but vanilla extract. Love omitting it and using the lemon juice! Thanks again for sharing!! Once combined, run your spoon along the bottom of the bowl. You will want to be able to see the bottom of the bowl for at least a few seconds. If ten seconds p and you can still see the bottom of the bowl you will need to add a little more milk.
