Hello Stephanie. I can only say that I Love, Love, LOVE this recipe. I have been making it for over a year now. It has NEVER failed me. Easy to work with & the taste is AMAZING. Found ‘Little Cookie’ last year and the videos you make are so good. I even use your cookie recipe. Please keep making great videos. Thanks so much for sharing with all of us 😀💖💖
I've used this royal icing recipe for several years. It is good. But just note: you will need at least TWO BAGS of POWDERED SUGAR to make one batch of this recipe. If you notice she adds in the entire 2lb bag of powdered sugar to start with. Then proceeds to add MORE powdered sugar that isn't mentioned in the ingredient list. I learned this the hard way that you'll always have water on hand to THIN your royal out but the **only way** to THICKEN it up is to add in a bit more powdered sugar. So if you don't have that extra bag of powdered sugar you might find yourself in a situation with watery icing & no way to thicken it up. Again this is a great recipe & I recommend...just be sure to have at least 2lbs of powdered sugar PLUS a bit extra on hand. Also I have found that a 2 lb bag of powdered sugar will easily make enough icing for 4 DOZEN cookies....if you plan out your cookie designs & colors ahead of time. Thought I should share that too. Happy cookieing! ☺️
It really depends on a few factors. Lots of different things can affect how long your cookies take to dry. But with using her recipe I have had some good results def. Some ppl say using a dehydrator (or a toaster oven on the dehydrate function which I just learned some have 😳) can really help to avoid craters in the icing. I think it's best to keep the consistency slightly THICKER and dry it quickly to avoid craters. I sometimes can thin it too much and it does me no favors. But overall I do recommend this icing recipe ☺️
I'm new to decorating sugar cookies. I found a great cookie recipe last year, and I can bake delicious cookies in uniform shapes, but that's as far as I got. This year, I'm committing to learning decorating. This recipe tastes amazing. I've watched this video so many times, and I've made one batch so far. I've mixed a few colors, and I'm now practicing consistency, outline, and flood. I am refrigerating the icing pulling it out in the morning to warm up and practicing. I'm amazed how well the colors have developed. Today, my flood consistency was all wrong, but I'm getting better at outlining. This is definitely a craft that will take a lot of commitment and practice. Thank you for your teaching.
I'm so happy to hear you're giving it a try!! It will come and it will get better and better!! Pretty soon you'll be a pro and look back and be amazed at how far you've come!
I love the taste of your icing! I found your channel a year ago and I love this recipe. Before I made my royal icing with real egg whites and did not like the taste or how it mixed together. I made cookies for Christmas and my brother said they tasted better than the bakeries. I now love sugar cookies with royal icing. I didn't before.
Thank you! I did the same thing, when I first started, I used raw egg whites and I hated the taste and even the smell when I would bite into it. So I'm so glad there's an alternative 😁 and that also tastes good! My family can't get enough of my cookies, and they'd be honest if they didn't taste good, so I knew I had a good tasting recipe haha
Thank you for making so many professionally filmed and narrated videos. I don't even bake and I've watched a dozen or more of your videos. It fascinates me to watch you work magic with the colors and the intricate designs. I hope your time spent is paying off - literally. Many thanks for your dedication to inspire, mentor and teach all of us!
Thank you so much, that really means a lot! I've been trying to always improve my videos over the years so I'm glad it's working and that you enjoy watching them ♥️ thank you for the support!!
I've made tons of cookies in my life, but I've never made royal icing before or decorated cookies with royal icing before. I've always wanted to, but thought I wasn't going to be good enough at it. Well, I mustered up the courage after watching many of your videos and I have to thank you SO much because I did it!!! My husband is very impressed! They're not bakery quality, but I'm pretty damn proud of myself, haha! I'm going to let them dry on a rack overnight and try to do more detailed decorating tomorrow. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Your channel is AMAZING and I just adore how thorough you are and how you don't rush through the videos just to make them short!
I'm so happy to hear this! That's awesome 🥰🥰🥰 I know it seems so scary to do it for the first time, but it's a lot of fun and you feel so proud of yourself because they're definitely a labour of love!! Glad your husband loved them too 😁
I highly recommend this channel to bakers new and old! Only wish I had it years ago. Very clear and useful information from start to finish! Happy Decorating!
I love the way you explain the techniques you use. You're a great teacher. Today will be the first time using your royal icing recipe. I can't wait to see how my gingerbread looks this year!
@@LittleCookieCo it worked beautifully. Yesterday I had a gingerbread decorating party and then icing was perfect for piping and painting. My sisters and nieces are so creative.
I could watch you all day long. I have told you before that you explain everything in such detail and easy to understand. I appreciate you and your tutorials so much, thank you and God Bless you...
Thank you so much!! Sometimes I have so much to say and try to fit it all in the video but can't haha, so I tried my best to slow down and show each detail! Glad you find it helpful ❤️
hi! im new as a cookie decorator and im only 12. im trying to build up and learn how to make good fresh soft cookies to sell. like to make a business! this really helped me! thank you so much!
Very nice video. The best hack to get a nice deep red is to mix a pink icing first, then you do not have to add so much red. You are an excellent teacher .
When I first started 'cookie-ing' December 2021, your videos were the first that I found. now I have a cookie business, and this is the SAME recipe that I STILL use 2 years later. The #1 comment I get from customers is that my cookies aren't hard as rock like others. and yes, my cookie recipe is also yours! so THANK YOU for making my life so much easier, even 2 years later!🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
About 30 years ago I was a Wilton decorating teacher. I never had an issue with royal icing until now. I tried your recipe and while it looks amazing I couldn't get it to work for me. ☹ Trust me when I say it's user error not the fault of the recipe. I used your cookie recipe, too, and that turned out great. But I don't care for the butter emulsion flavor. I will probably continue to make the cookies and just glaze them with a lemon or almond flavoring. Your work is amazingly great! Thanks for providing us with tried and true recipes.(even if some of us dinosaurs just can't get the hang to the icing!) 💝
Oh that is so cool that you were a Wilton teacher! I always loved watching videos and green up with wilton decorating books and piping tips (my Christmas gifts as a kid)!! I hope you give it another shot, sometimes things just go wrong (even for me who's made it a thousand times)!
I have never decorated cookies, but I really want to learn, so glad to have found your channel! I will definitely be trying to decorate cookies for Christmas. Thank you! New subbie from Northern Alberta!
I’ve been watching you for years and you are one of the few bakers I trust. Taste is everything to me, if it’s a beautiful cookie and tastes like stew what is the point of all that work. I have a big bake this week, my best friend’s wedding. I will be using fresh lemon juice instead of the butter flavor because it SO cuts the sweetness and it’s Spring! I’m gonna trust you!
Aww thank you, that means so much to me!!! Lemon juice is a great idea and especially since it's spring, it's perfect!!! Everyone will love them, best of luck!!!
Just wanted to say “Thank You” for sharing your recipe and video!! It made a huge difference in my cookie decorating process 😊 I have always struggled with getting the consistency correct, but I followed your instructions exactly and decorating today was a breeze!! You have gained a new follower ❤
Yay!!! That makes me soooo happy, thank you ♥️♥️ I'm so glad it worked well for you! It makes such a huge difference when your icing is right, decorating is so much more fun!!
I’m new to icing and making roll sugar cookies. I just love your teaching method and how calm and step by step you do. I have always wanted to learn this and you’ve made this so easy to follow! I’ll be decorating my first batch of roll sugar cookies and using your recipe as well! I’m so excited to start doing these! You’ve got my follow and also have shared your channel for others that love to bake and decorate! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!!! 🎄🙏
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that ❤️❤️ Hope you have a very Merry Christmas as well and all the best to you and your family in the New Year as well ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe and for not rushing through the how-to!!! I love watching your videos because I actually do learn so much. I made this recipe for the first time on Christmas Eve and man, it is great! So easy to get the right consistency and it behaves so much nicer than some of the other recipes I've tried. I love the way it looks when it dried! Thanks again. - Newbie cookier since Feb 23
Spectacular again! I made your cookie recipe a couple days ago, with the dark brown sugar, and they are perfection. My first edge icing was too dry, but functional. My first flood was perfect. The white icing parts went great, my coloring will take practice...the black was spirulina green until it dried. I've learned TONS from your videos, and this one I learned to let the icing sit to allow bubbles to rise. None showed on my cookies, cuz of the scribe tool. Thanks again! (Oh, I didn't sell any, cuz I started them too late to finish in time for the sale, and my artistic skills need some practice. My neighbors will love them, though.)
This makes me sooooo happy 😁🥰😁🥰 yay!! This is awesome! It sounds like you had an amazingly successful set and I'm sure your neighbors will absolutely love them! You learn so much every time you decorate cookies and that's how you build all the skills to make them better! Great job ❤️❤️
I used the icing recipe and your sugar cookie recipe to make Christmas tree cookies for Christmas. They were fantastic. Guests couldn't believe how good they tasted and that I made them. I think the butter emulsion makes a huge difference. Thank you for your videos. Happy New Year!
That makes me so happy to read, thank you so much!!! I'm so glad you loved it!!! The butter makes such a good flavour but not overpowering where you know what it is and may not like it. It just works perfect with the cookies!!
Yours is the only recipe I use. It’s easy to substitute flavors! My customers love the taste and appreciate that it’s not a hard bit. My favorite flavoring is the cream cheese flavor!
Hi Stephanie!! I’ve been out of touch for quite some time for getting back into wanting to decorate cookies. And of course I came straight to your page. Lol I just watched your Royal icing tutorial. You are truly the absolute best teacher ever. I can’t wait to get back into doing this using all of your recipes and tips and tricks. I will stay in touch on my progress. You are truly the best thank you so so much!!!
This was super helpful, so I thankful you've included measurements in the description. Had to get some maths going to convert to Australian measurements.
I used your icing video before on last years Christmas cookies and this years Valentine's Day cookies. While the other video contains the same recipe being straight to the point, I really appreciate the in depth details you give in looking for signs of the consistency icing desired. Thank you for this! I am in the process now of whipping up a lovely batch for this years Christmas cookies. Thanks again! Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much!!! I wanted to add some more detail and better shots to this video, so glad it helped!! And hope you have a very Merry Christmas ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for a wonderful tutorial. I’m excited and nervous to try decorating my first cookies ❤ I loved your channel so much I shared it with my niece.
Thank you so much!! And don't be too nervous, just have fun with it. We all started from the same place and there's no better way to learn then just dive in and go for it! They are cookies, so the best part is you can eat the mistakes hehe!
What a wonderful video for a newbie, which I am! I so appreciate all the details, especially re the different icing consistencies. I am really looking forward to making a batch of Valentine's Day cookies very soon. Thank you for being such a great teacher!
Well, after watching this icing video, i realized ive done everything wrong. Ive learned a tremendous amount i didnt know! Very clear and exceptional videos. Thank you and Merry Christmas! 🎄
You are such a wonderful teacher! I am getting ready to try this for the first time and feel very confident that my cookies will turn out great with how well you have explained things. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!!! The best way to do it is just to dive in and give it a go! We all go through a learning process and we all start at the same level! It will be fun and will be something you want to keep doing and improving and it will be amazing! I know you can do it!
@@LittleCookieCo Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to offer me words of encouragement! I made some pumpkin shaped cookies for Thanksgiving and they turned out well for my first time. I did have my outlining icing a little too thick and my flood icing way too thin but I wanted to go ahead and use it - sometimes I learn better from making mistakes. Next time, I will concentrate on making sure the consistencies are correct. All in all though, I wasn't displeased with the result and really appreciate your helpful videos and especially your encouraging words. Have a blessed holiday!
My hubby loves to bake and so I’m going to share your cookie and icing recipe for him to make us sugar cookies for Christmas:) Thank you for sharing with us:) Merry Christmas and God bless:)
I love baking but have not tried sugar cookies with Royal icing yet. They are so beautiful and I am hoping to get the courage to try this sometime soon. Thank you for your information. Your cookies are gorgeous, BTW!
Thank you so much!! I really hope you give them a try! They may not come out perfect but it will be so much fun! I have this Christmas tutorial with some basic shapes that would maybe be a good start for your first cookies! I hope you give it a try: ruclips.net/video/8qD-wJoECy4/видео.html
I have decorated cookies for years but always use buttercream as royal tastes terrible. I’ve never heard of the butter emulsion and I am so excited to try your recipe! Maybe now my cookies will taste great AND look great! Thanks for the video. 😊
I never knew about them until I started getting more into cookies but they are such a game changer and it's really cool all the different ways you can cut them and use them for different ways to pipe!!
I have tried others RI recipe. Decided I wanted to try something different. Here I am on your page I subscribed. I’m excited to try this recipe for an upcoming order.
C'est incroyable, c'est la même recette que j'utilise, même sans avoir vu ton video avant et de plus tu fais tout ce que je fais pour serrer le restant de mon RI. Superbe !!!❤😊
I’ve used your recipes for sugar cookies and Royal icing for the first time about a year ago. I must say your recipes are fool proofed. I’ve only made them 3 times all together so I’m hardly an expert. But it appears with your recipes you can’t go wrong. I did cookies for last year Christmas, than Chinese New year, and just repeated the Chinese New Year just this past weekend. That’s very true that red is very challenging to achieve in the right shade. And for the Chinese New Year the right shade of red is very important. I started to worry I would never get that red right. It turned out perfect but I had to use so much food colouring it wasn’t even funny. After all that baking, decorating, and after all the celebrations, I finally ate one of my red cookies last night. My mouth, tongue, and teeth all turned red. Now… that was funny! All this food colouring doesn’t come off easily either. 😂 Anyways, there are so many tricks to the trade. I have used only three colours this time. I needed to simplify the process as much as possible. Three colours equals six bags of royal icing anyways. Read, white, and black plus some gold coloured sugar made the trick. Oh, sorry I’m lying… I made black only in one, the thick consistency, just for details of the design. My red flooding icing turned out just a bit too thick. I’ve only realized that when it was already in the bag so I had to work around that. I’ve noticed my bags were pretty stiff too, and with 2 edges, which made it tricky to make the outline nice and round instead of looking like a flat ribbon. It was nearly impossible to soften the tips down. I halved the icing recipe and still have a lot of icing left. I may use it for Valentine’s Day since red and white are just the perfect colours. The tips on how to store the icing come very handy at the moment. Thanks a lot for the tutorials. Thanks to you my cookies were great success! ❤
Okay, I tried this icing recipe and am wondering WHERE it has been all this time? I found this recipe to be so much easier to control consistency then the recipes without corn syrup. I also found the finish on the cookies to be shinier. Thanks for sharing, it is a game changer for sure!
Wow!! I love that my videos make it all the way from Cameroon from Canada!!! You can also use egg whites (here they aren't alwyas safe to eat raw so people tend to prefer meringue powder). I don't have a recipe for that but there are many online!
The first 2 times I made it it was kind of hard to get it together, I added half the water and it seemed like enough, but it still was gritty and weird looking no matter how much I was mixing it, and it stayed like that until I added the rest of the water which fixed it, then it looked glossy and nice, but I'd have to add another half a pound of sugar to thicken it back up to be piping consistency. So the third time I took half the water, added the merengue powder and let it sit until it looked like booger ish, kind of like blooming geletin, then I mixed it in and it came together perfectly, and I didn't need to add the rest of the water. Maybe my merengue powder is weird haha. Getting it wet worked like a charm though. The butter flavour was so amazing, and I used your cookie recipe too and they were unbelievably good, and the colours worked out perfectly, and I'm a beginner at royal icing. All your tips helped so much and helped me troubleshoot my merengue powder issue. I'm definitely gonna make them again they were amazing!
I'm so glad you were able to make it work! Sometimes our climates make the recipes turn out a bit different. And also the brands of sugar or meringue powder can affect it sometimes too! When it gets to that kind thick goopey stage you whip I a bit and it becomes the beautiful icing!! Glad you got the hang of it and it will just get easier and easier!
@LittleCookieCo That makes a lot of sense, I'm in Alberta, which is freezing cold semi desert climate, so low humidity from bone dry wind coming over the mountains, plus the furnace running all the time to make the air even more dry lol.
Little cookie, hoy he aprendido mucho tengo 11 años que empece con esto y cada vez aprendo mas, pero con la receta que me dieron en un principio y las que he adquerido no se igualan a esto, quede admirada de tu explicacion, siempre que encuentro una galleta con calidad, me pregunto cuando voy a encontrar alguien que me enseñe, lo que tu hoy, quisiera intentarlo, pero aqui no encuentro todos los materiales (butter bakery emulsion) como lo puedo sustituir, que aporta este ingrediente a la mescla?, ni que decir de tu tutorial, muy agradecida y mas si me pudieras contestar
Wow, solo 11 años 😁 yo tambien empeze a hacer postres en ese edad (pero no galletas asi!!) Eso butter bakery emulsion es solo para poner sabor, entonces no tienes que usarlo, es solo un sabor que me gusta usar! Y tengo muchas tutoriales en mi canal, trato a hacer videos en los preguntas que todos tienen sobre galletas. Ojala que lo escribi bien y que me entiendes porque mi Español no es el mejor ❤️
I love your videos. I used to decorate cakes when my kids were little, many moons ago! I want to start decorating cookies. QUESTION - if I want to use a marshmallow flavour, would it replace the butter emulsion or the vanilla?
Thank you so much for sharing how to make your icing. Such a fantastic teacher!! I’m a beginner and can’t wait to try. My OCD is begging you to scrap the sides of your bowl. Hahaha!!! I will probably be horrible at decorating cookies but I won’t know until I try ❤
Thank you so much!! And don't worry it bugs me too but its so hard to film all the steps without blocking it with my arms 🤣 so I try to stay out of the way as much as possible. And yes, give it a try!! It will be fun and you will get better every time!
Thank you so much for your wonderful easy to follow recipes. Your voice is so soothing and I am new to cookie baking and icing. I’m from Australia and can’t get all the brands of ingredients you mention for icing like meringue powder or white colour. Do you have any suggestions as to what I can use instead? Thank you and Merry Christmas from Australia 🇦🇺 🎅🏻🤶🇦🇺🌺🌸
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!! You can make royal icing with egg whites, however I don't have a recipe for it but there are plenty good ones online! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄 🎅 thank you!!
Im from Germany. So I write in german.....ich brauchte 300 gamm mehr Puderzucker um die Konsistenz zu erreichen, es war danach nicht so fein...eher kristallisiert. Ich hab butteremulsion und weiss bzw.maissirup angepasst an die Menge.vlt liegt es am Zucker in Deutschland. Trotzdem ist das Ergebnis wunderschön und fällt nicht zusammen. Der Geschmack ist besser sonst. Also nicht irritieren lassen von der Konsistenz am Anfang. Thanks a lot for the recipe❤
Should you have added the rest of the liquid first like the emulsion n extract before adding more water in case that’s enough liquid anyway so no more additional powdered is needed?
Hi Stephanie I am new to cookie decorating and looking forward to starting I've taken one or two classes, my question is how do you know how much icing you need for piping or flooding set aside when you're doing cookies. I'm afraid if I put too much aside for outlining and I didn't save enough for flooding how do you figure that out . Thank you
Hello Stephanie. I can only say that I Love, Love, LOVE this recipe. I have been making it for over a year now. It has NEVER failed me. Easy to work with & the taste is AMAZING. Found ‘Little Cookie’ last year and the videos you make are so good. I even use your cookie recipe. Please keep making great videos. Thanks so much for sharing with all of us 😀💖💖

I think the implication would be (for me) is just not to add too much water in the first place.

I hadn’t touched royal icing in 10 years because it was always a pain. I tried this recipe and it was so easy! Results were great the first try.
Yes!!! I love to hear that, so glad it worked well!!! Thanks 🥰🥰
Just wanted to say “Thank You” for sharing your recipe and video!! It made a huge difference in my cookie decorating process 😊 I have always struggled with getting the consistency correct, but I followed your instructions exactly and decorating today was a breeze!! You have gained a new follower ❤
Yay!!! That makes me soooo happy, thank you ♥️♥️ I'm so glad it worked well for you! It makes such a huge difference when your icing is right, decorating is so much more fun!!
Thank you for metric units❤, I'm from Cracow (Poland) and it works for me better. I like watch your channel - cheers
You're very welcome, im Canadian and we use both here 😁 !! And how amazing that my videos are being watched in Poland ❤️ thank you!!
@@LittleCookieCoNot only Poland but their neighbours as well 😁I am watching from Prague 🇨🇿 😍
Oh so cool, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I’m new to icing and making roll sugar cookies. I just love your teaching method and how calm and step by step you do. I have always wanted to learn this and you’ve made this so easy to follow! I’ll be decorating my first batch of roll sugar cookies and using your recipe as well! I’m so excited to start doing these! You’ve got my follow and also have shared your channel for others that love to bake and decorate! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family!!! 🎄🙏
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that ❤️❤️ Hope you have a very Merry Christmas as well and all the best to you and your family in the New Year as well ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing this great recipe and for not rushing through the how-to!!! I love watching your videos because I actually do learn so much. I made this recipe for the first time on Christmas Eve and man, it is great! So easy to get the right consistency and it behaves so much nicer than some of the other recipes I've tried. I love the way it looks when it dried! Thanks again. - Newbie cookier since Feb 23
Yay!! I'm so happy to hear that you loved it 🥰 thank you!!!
Spectacular again! I made your cookie recipe a couple days ago, with the dark brown sugar, and they are perfection. My first edge icing was too dry, but functional. My first flood was perfect. The white icing parts went great, my coloring will take practice...the black was spirulina green until it dried. I've learned TONS from your videos, and this one I learned to let the icing sit to allow bubbles to rise. None showed on my cookies, cuz of the scribe tool. Thanks again! (Oh, I didn't sell any, cuz I started them too late to finish in time for the sale, and my artistic skills need some practice. My neighbors will love them, though.)
This makes me sooooo happy 😁🥰😁🥰 yay!! This is awesome! It sounds like you had an amazingly successful set and I'm sure your neighbors will absolutely love them! You learn so much every time you decorate cookies and that's how you build all the skills to make them better! Great job ❤️❤️
I used the icing recipe and your sugar cookie recipe to make Christmas tree cookies for Christmas. They were fantastic. Guests couldn't believe how good they tasted and that I made them. I think the butter emulsion makes a huge difference. Thank you for your videos. Happy New Year!
That makes me so happy to read, thank you so much!!! I'm so glad you loved it!!! The butter makes such a good flavour but not overpowering where you know what it is and may not like it. It just works perfect with the cookies!!
Yours is the only recipe I use. It’s easy to substitute flavors! My customers love the taste and appreciate that it’s not a hard bit. My favorite flavoring is the cream cheese flavor!
Yay! I love that you love it 🥰🥰 and cream cheese is always one of my favourites too 😁 it's soo good!!
Thank you... You were very detailed in teaching. 💐👍💯
Thank you so much ❤️
Hi Stephanie!! I’ve been out of touch for quite some time for getting back into wanting to decorate cookies. And of course I came straight to your page. Lol I just watched your Royal icing tutorial. You are truly the absolute best teacher ever. I can’t wait to get back into doing this using all of your recipes and tips and tricks. I will stay in touch on my progress. You are truly the best thank you so so much!!!
You are too kind, thank you so much ❤️❤️ I'm glad the videos are helpful and you remembered me 😊 You got this ❤️
This was super helpful, so I thankful you've included measurements in the description. Had to get some maths going to convert to Australian measurements.
Thank you so much! 🥰🥰
I used your icing video before on last years Christmas cookies and this years Valentine's Day cookies. While the other video contains the same recipe being straight to the point, I really appreciate the in depth details you give in looking for signs of the consistency icing desired. Thank you for this! I am in the process now of whipping up a lovely batch for this years Christmas cookies. Thanks again! Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much!!! I wanted to add some more detail and better shots to this video, so glad it helped!! And hope you have a very Merry Christmas ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for a wonderful tutorial. I’m excited and nervous to try decorating my first cookies ❤ I loved your channel so much I shared it with my niece.
Thank you so much!! And don't be too nervous, just have fun with it. We all started from the same place and there's no better way to learn then just dive in and go for it! They are cookies, so the best part is you can eat the mistakes hehe!
I love your time management tips that you throw in as well. Your videos are my go to and I'm sharing them with my daughter =)
Thank you so much, I'm so glad you enjoy them ❤️❤️
What a wonderful video for a newbie, which I am! I so appreciate all the details, especially re the different icing consistencies. I am really looking forward to making a batch of Valentine's Day cookies very soon. Thank you for being such a great teacher!
Thank you so much!! I hope your valentine's cookie decorating went amazing ♥️♥️
Well, after watching this icing video, i realized ive done everything wrong. Ive learned a tremendous amount i didnt know! Very clear and exceptional videos. Thank you and Merry Christmas! 🎄
I'm so glad it was helpful!! Thank you so much and hope you have a very Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 😊
You are such a wonderful teacher! I am getting ready to try this for the first time and feel very confident that my cookies will turn out great with how well you have explained things. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!!! The best way to do it is just to dive in and give it a go! We all go through a learning process and we all start at the same level! It will be fun and will be something you want to keep doing and improving and it will be amazing! I know you can do it!
@@LittleCookieCo Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to offer me words of encouragement! I made some pumpkin shaped cookies for Thanksgiving and they turned out well for my first time. I did have my outlining icing a little too thick and my flood icing way too thin but I wanted to go ahead and use it - sometimes I learn better from making mistakes. Next time, I will concentrate on making sure the consistencies are correct. All in all though, I wasn't displeased with the result and really appreciate your helpful videos and especially your encouraging words. Have a blessed holiday!
I've always been too intimidated to try this but this tutorial was great and I'm going to give it a try!
Yay! I'm so happy to hear that. Thank you ❤️
My hubby loves to bake and so I’m going to share your cookie and icing recipe for him to make us sugar cookies for Christmas:) Thank you for sharing with us:) Merry Christmas and God bless:)
Yay!! That's awesome! And lucky you 🥰 wish my husband could make me cookies once 🤣 thank you and hope you have a very Merry Christmas ❤️❤️
I love baking but have not tried sugar cookies with Royal icing yet. They are so beautiful and I am hoping to get the courage to try this sometime soon. Thank you for your information. Your cookies are gorgeous, BTW!
Thank you so much!! I really hope you give them a try! They may not come out perfect but it will be so much fun! I have this Christmas tutorial with some basic shapes that would maybe be a good start for your first cookies! I hope you give it a try:

I have decorated cookies for years but always use buttercream as royal tastes terrible. I’ve never heard of the butter emulsion and I am so excited to try your recipe! Maybe now my cookies will taste great AND look great! Thanks for the video. 😊

Yay!!! That makes me so happy, thank you ❤️
Thank you for the link for the tipkess bags.I did not know they existed . I ordered them. I am excited to use them.
I never knew about them until I started getting more into cookies but they are such a game changer and it's really cool all the different ways you can cut them and use them for different ways to pipe!!
you are a very good teacher! I will try this.
Thank you so much!! I hope you do 🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing your great knowledge!
You're welcome ♥️
Great teacher 🎉 thanks!
I need to decorate 1 dozen cookies. Question: How to correctly calculate the ingredients in a royal icing recipe for this amount of cookies?
Thank you for sharing with such generosity ❤ god bless you

That's amazing 😁😁 great minds think alike ❤️
Amazing lesson,I love it
Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
I’ve used your recipes for sugar cookies and Royal icing for the first time about a year ago. I must say your recipes are fool proofed. I’ve only made them 3 times all together so I’m hardly an expert. But it appears with your recipes you can’t go wrong. I did cookies for last year Christmas, than Chinese New year, and just repeated the Chinese New Year just this past weekend.
That’s very true that red is very challenging to achieve in the right shade. And for the Chinese New Year the right shade of red is very important. I started to worry I would never get that red right.
It turned out perfect but I had to use so much food colouring it wasn’t even funny.
After all that baking, decorating, and after all the celebrations, I finally ate one of my red cookies last night. My mouth, tongue, and teeth all turned red. Now… that was funny! All this food colouring doesn’t come off easily either. 😂
Anyways, there are so many tricks to the trade.
I have used only three colours this time. I needed to simplify the process as much as possible. Three colours equals six bags of royal icing anyways. Read, white, and black plus some gold coloured sugar made the trick. Oh, sorry I’m lying… I made black only in one, the thick consistency, just for details of the design.
My red flooding icing turned out just a bit too thick. I’ve only realized that when it was already in the bag so I had to work around that. I’ve noticed my bags were pretty stiff too, and with 2 edges, which made it tricky to make the outline nice and round instead of looking like a flat ribbon. It was nearly impossible to soften the tips down.
I halved the icing recipe and still have a lot of icing left. I may use it for Valentine’s Day since red and white are just the perfect colours. The tips on how to store the icing come very handy at the moment.
Thanks a lot for the tutorials.
Thanks to you my cookies were great success! ❤
I'm so glad to hear that the decorating was a success! And yes, those colours do temporarily stain (but the kids love it haha)!! Thank you 🥰🥰
Very informative! Thank you!🙏🏾
Merry Christmas🎄
Thank you and Merry Christmas to you as well ❤️
I love your videos💖
Okay, I tried this icing recipe and am wondering WHERE it has been all this time? I found this recipe to be so much easier to control consistency then the recipes without corn syrup. I also found the finish on the cookies to be shinier. Thanks for sharing, it is a game changer for sure!
That makes me really happy, so glad you loved it 🥰🥰
Thank stephanie for the video it so interesting.
I'm from cameroon and we don't have meringue powder.
Wow!! I love that my videos make it all the way from Cameroon from Canada!!! You can also use egg whites (here they aren't alwyas safe to eat raw so people tend to prefer meringue powder). I don't have a recipe for that but there are many online!
I’m inspired to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
Hope you like it! 🥰🥰
Such a great and informative video tyfs❤
Thank you so much 🥰🥰
This was SO incredibly helpful!!! Thank you!
Yay! So happy to hear that, thank you 🥰
I’d love your recipe please!
It's written in the description of the video, if you expand that section just above the comments!
Great video. I think making the many colors of flood and outline icing bags is harder than decorating the cookies!!!
It feels like it takes a lot more time, but if you get them right, it makes the decorating process much easier!!
Best video I’ve seen
The first 2 times I made it it was kind of hard to get it together, I added half the water and it seemed like enough, but it still was gritty and weird looking no matter how much I was mixing it, and it stayed like that until I added the rest of the water which fixed it, then it looked glossy and nice, but I'd have to add another half a pound of sugar to thicken it back up to be piping consistency. So the third time I took half the water, added the merengue powder and let it sit until it looked like booger ish, kind of like blooming geletin, then I mixed it in and it came together perfectly, and I didn't need to add the rest of the water. Maybe my merengue powder is weird haha. Getting it wet worked like a charm though. The butter flavour was so amazing, and I used your cookie recipe too and they were unbelievably good, and the colours worked out perfectly, and I'm a beginner at royal icing. All your tips helped so much and helped me troubleshoot my merengue powder issue. I'm definitely gonna make them again they were amazing!
I'm so glad you were able to make it work! Sometimes our climates make the recipes turn out a bit different. And also the brands of sugar or meringue powder can affect it sometimes too! When it gets to that kind thick goopey stage you whip I a bit and it becomes the beautiful icing!! Glad you got the hang of it and it will just get easier and easier!
@LittleCookieCo That makes a lot of sense, I'm in Alberta, which is freezing cold semi desert climate, so low humidity from bone dry wind coming over the mountains, plus the furnace running all the time to make the air even more dry lol.
Little cookie, hoy he aprendido mucho tengo 11 años que empece con esto y cada vez aprendo mas, pero con la receta que me dieron en un principio y las que he adquerido no se igualan a esto, quede admirada de tu explicacion, siempre que encuentro una galleta con calidad, me pregunto cuando voy a encontrar alguien que me enseñe, lo que tu hoy, quisiera intentarlo, pero aqui no encuentro todos los materiales (butter bakery emulsion) como lo puedo sustituir, que aporta este ingrediente a la mescla?, ni que decir de tu tutorial, muy agradecida y mas si me pudieras contestar
Wow, solo 11 años 😁 yo tambien empeze a hacer postres en ese edad (pero no galletas asi!!) Eso butter bakery emulsion es solo para poner sabor, entonces no tienes que usarlo, es solo un sabor que me gusta usar! Y tengo muchas tutoriales en mi canal, trato a hacer videos en los preguntas que todos tienen sobre galletas. Ojala que lo escribi bien y que me entiendes porque mi Español no es el mejor ❤️
I love your videos. I used to decorate cakes when my kids were little, many moons ago! I want to start decorating cookies. QUESTION - if I want to use a marshmallow flavour, would it replace the butter emulsion or the vanilla?
VERY IMPRESSIVE LEARN ALOT
I'm so happy to hear that 🥰🥰
Thank you so much for sharing how to make your icing. Such a fantastic teacher!! I’m a beginner and can’t wait to try. My OCD is begging you to scrap the sides of your bowl. Hahaha!!! I will probably be horrible at decorating cookies but I won’t know until I try ❤
Thank you so much!! And don't worry it bugs me too but its so hard to film all the steps without blocking it with my arms 🤣 so I try to stay out of the way as much as possible. And yes, give it a try!! It will be fun and you will get better every time!
Wow! Great tutorial,
Thank you so much
Perfect video!
So many great tips!
Thank you ❤️
Thank you for all the wonderful tips! ❤
Glad they are helpful 🥰🥰
AMEI SEU TRABALHO COM EXPLICAÇÃO PERFEITA PARABÉNS sou Elenice Nunes morro no Brasil muito obrigada por nos ensinar .😘😘.
Thank you!!!! I'm so flattered that my video reaches all the way to Brasil from Canada!! Amazing! I hope to one day be able to visit 🥰
This looks DELICIOUS! I am looking forward to trying this one.
Yay!! Thank you! Let me know what you think 🥰
I will. You are very welcome also. 😊👍🏼
❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your wonderful easy to follow recipes. Your voice is so soothing and I am new to cookie baking and icing. I’m from Australia and can’t get all the brands of ingredients you mention for icing like meringue powder or white colour. Do you have any suggestions as to what I can use instead? Thank you and Merry Christmas from Australia 🇦🇺 🎅🏻🤶🇦🇺🌺🌸
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!! You can make royal icing with egg whites, however I don't have a recipe for it but there are plenty good ones online! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄 🎅 thank you!!
Im from Germany. So I write in german.....ich brauchte 300 gamm mehr Puderzucker um die Konsistenz zu erreichen, es war danach nicht so fein...eher kristallisiert. Ich hab butteremulsion und weiss bzw.maissirup angepasst an die Menge.vlt liegt es am Zucker in Deutschland. Trotzdem ist das Ergebnis wunderschön und fällt nicht zusammen. Der Geschmack ist besser sonst. Also nicht irritieren lassen von der Konsistenz am Anfang.
Thanks a lot for the recipe❤
Hi, can you use the outline consistency icing to assemble a gingerbread house? Thanks
Yes! You definitely can!!
Should you have added the rest of the liquid first like the emulsion n extract before adding more water in case that’s enough liquid anyway so no more additional powdered is needed?
Hi Stephanie I am new to cookie decorating and looking forward to starting I've taken one or two classes, my question is how do you know how much icing you need for piping or flooding set aside when you're doing cookies. I'm afraid if I put too much aside for outlining and I didn't save enough for flooding how do you figure that out . Thank you
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Me gustaria que los subtitulos estuvieran disponibles para traducir al español
