Thank you so much. I've been decorating cookies for 20 years. They are yummy but not as pretty as yours. Now I can practice and step my game up. I appreciate you sharing!
Thanks so much for this tutorial, Lisa. I learned a ton. I already have the cake decorating down including advanced fondant work but never took the time to learn lettering correctly. Mine was really terrible. Been practicing and working on it lately. Your tutorial has really helped me a lot.
I took your suggestion and smashed the like button. 😂 Seriously, though, thank you sooooo much! Writing scares the crap out of me. Literally, I’ll stress out 2 weeks before it’s due. This helps so much!
Yessss I need this! There is one major thing I’m missing in my baking business and that’s sugar cookies! I have all of your recipes and every other tool you have and I am excited to use them and learn from you! ❤️❤️
That was so much fun to watch--I can't believe you packed all that into one video!!! Thank you for sharing your expertise for free. You are kind and generous--AND a great cookier!
Super helpful! Lettering has always been a challenge for me because my hands are unsteady. I've been slowly getting better with practice and using the projector you recommended helps my lettering stay consistent :D
Wow. So helpful I was having difficulty with this. Your website is full of useful resources and I purchased your royal icing recipe a few months back,It's very nice. Thank you for this video I know you put a lot of hard work into this and your helping beginners like me ❤️
Hola! Qué lindo! Yo también me dedico a la decoración de galletas. Me gustó tu trabajo! Empecé recientemente el canal para enseñar todo lo que sé a quienes quieren aprender el arte de las galletas decoradas! Qué lindo compartir esta misma pasión!
Danglies -- are serifs, which are the hooks and feet on a serifed font. (Sans-serif is without, of course.) Variable width is a thick-thin transition. :-) #fontnerd Thanks for the video!
So informative! Awesome video! Thank you for walking us through your thoughts and completely explaining what and why. The best lettering video I've ever seen! Thank you so much for spending time and making it!
This is absolutely amazing best video I have ever seen so that little bit that you squeezed out of that bag was just what you had typed on your cookie and now you made it thicker for writing how long do you store your base icing for before you tint it and how long can you store it after you color it for the future thank you again your work is outstanding!! What gel colors do you use for 10 thing I always have such a hard time getting bold dark colors Like black and red
I’ve watched this video several times. Trying to learn to write on cookies. You make it look so easy. Have difficulty w icing consistentcy. Either too thick or too thin. Looking for just riight;)
Thank you for this great video and the printables! Just wondering if there's a reason for starting most letters at the top, but others at the bottom, like S.
Hi there-- in the PDF download I tell you what fonts are what here: borderlandsbakery.com/cookie-decorating-resources/intro-to-writing-with-royal-icing/
Thank you for the video! Quick question, and I’m sorry if you already answered this, but when you make royal icing, do you use meringue powder or fresh egg whites? And do you notice a difference between the two? Thanks!
Hi Lisa, the cookies that you showed to us in the beginning, were they a wet on wet design? How did you get the design of those shapes onto the cookie?
At 12:40 I was just going to ask why not just use an edible marker in those situations 🤷 But you tried it !! Lol And sometimes people want to use RI so thanks for sharing these tips 👍
Nope, I leave my icing out at room temp in an airtight container for up to about a week. If I know it's going to go longer than that, I throw it in the freezer.
What happens if your consistency is right, but your icing is not flowing out of the hole you cut, especially for the tiny writing? Could my tipless bags be too soft?
Could you please show us a receipt for your royal icing? I've tried like 10 - impossible to make tiny lines and letters. It was breaking all the time 🙁
Unbelievable how much I learned. I know I will watch it often as my skill grows. A wonderful sharing and thank you so much.
Ahhhhh, that’s the secret with skinny lettering! Keep the seem to the left instead of on top to prevent curling! THANK YOU!!!!🎉❤
Thank you Lisa!!! This is extremely helpful and so very kind to offer your talented advice for free! ❤️
So much helpful information as a hobby-er and older person, I can scarcely take it in. In a GOOD way,
Thank you so much. I've been decorating cookies for 20 years. They are yummy but not as pretty as yours. Now I can practice and step my game up. I appreciate you sharing!
You got this!! Thank you for leaving me a note
Thank you for this tutorial. I was struggling with texting letters and the idea of using royal icing transfers is more than perfect!
Thank you so much for doing this! I am a visual learner and also a beginner! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼💜
The best video on icing lettering hands down!! Thank you tremendously!
Thanks so much for this tutorial, Lisa. I learned a ton. I already have the cake decorating down including advanced fondant work but never took the time to learn lettering correctly. Mine was really terrible. Been practicing and working on it lately. Your tutorial has really helped me a lot.

Thank you Lisa ~ Your video was very easy to watch and understand! I am looking forward to trying some of your fonts.
Thank you so much, this is so educational. And also for the moral support about getting the icing consistency right, it's a struggle!
First time watching you, you are an INCREDIBLE instructor!!
Thank you! Teaching style can be so subjective so it's always nice to hear it works for you
Wonderful instruction! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Can’t wait to practice.
The “dangly bits” are called serifs. But I think I prefer dangly bits. 😁
Super helpful! Lettering has always been a challenge for me because my hands are unsteady. I've been slowly getting better with practice and using the projector you recommended helps my lettering stay consistent :D
I love that we have so many tools to help us. I can't draw so the projector and practice has been a life saver!

Thank you for this great video and the printables! Just wondering if there's a reason for starting most letters at the top, but others at the bottom, like S.
Preference plays a big part in this and angles, which side is more comfortable for you, etc- gotta try it all to see what you prefer :)
Great video. Thank you for that. How can I get to the practice sheets? Thank you
Watching this over and over! Has helped me so much with writing. Can you share the Damn Thin font? You’re amazing
Hi there-- in the PDF download I tell you what fonts are what here: borderlandsbakery.com/cookie-decorating-resources/intro-to-writing-with-royal-icing/
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. Can you tell us how to prevent bleeding of colors?
Thank you thank you!!
Amazing
Beautiful cookies Lisa ,
Do you have a tutorial on your terrazzo cookies?
This is really helpful, thank you!
With regards to a dehydrator, we have one it is called mellaware billing king it only has a fan in it will it work or will it affect the cookie etc
Best way to find out is to try with what you already have and observe results :)
Thank you for the video! Quick question, and I’m sorry if you already answered this, but when you make royal icing, do you use meringue powder or fresh egg whites? And do you notice a difference between the two? Thanks!
I use meringue powder and there is absolutely a difference-- I find that whites tend to result in more color bleed and dries a bit differently.
What size/type of projector do you use? Thanks!! :)
Hi Lisa, the cookies that you showed to us in the beginning, were they a wet on wet design? How did you get the design of those shapes onto the cookie?
Hi Bella! Yes, wet on wet and honestly I just eyeballed it and put imperfect triangles down for the terrazo pattern, worked decently!
@@BorderlandsBakery amazing! Thank you so much
Do you leave the flooded cookie out of the fridge for it to get that hard? Loved the video thanks!
Yes- royal icing needs airflow to dry :)
THank you for this MOST helpful video. The link in the design document for the practice sheets is broken. Is there another location for them?
Download the free item here: borderlandsbakery.com/products/icing-practice-sheets-pdf-downloads "Freebie for YT class"
Hi! Where do we find the practice sheets? I’ve watched this video twice now, super informative! Thank you!!
Hi Leah, I've linked them all in my blog post-- the link is in the description box :)
At 12:40 I was just going to ask why not just use an edible marker in those situations 🤷 But you tried it !! Lol
And sometimes people want to use RI so thanks for sharing these tips 👍
Yeah it totally just depends- no “wrong” things- lots of options ❤️❤️🙌
The my question is can u writing and can u use writing icing to drawing thing with it and I just asking
You have GREAT skills and do such beautiful work! Tell me, does your writing hand ever get numb and tingle? It's the downside I face with piping :(
I definitely cramp, but there's no numbness and tingling -- :)
Where are the practice sheets for writing
it will take 12 hours to make my royal icing set? because i need to make a tiny dedication for my fondant topper is thaht even possible? tia
Without seeing your design and understanding your environment/recipes, it's very hard to say. Drying time varies :)
Hey Lisa! Do you store your icing in the refrigerator overnight while waiting for the flood to completely dry before detailing?
Nope, I leave my icing out at room temp in an airtight container for up to about a week. If I know it's going to go longer than that, I throw it in the freezer.
It’s beautiful 🤩, may I know how did u do the cookie design?!! It’s beautiful
Thank you for sharing this! What projector do you recommend?
Hi Letty, mine is pretty old but here it is: borderlandsbakery.com/cookie-decorating-resources/projector-for-cookies/
What happens if your consistency is right, but your icing is not flowing out of the hole you cut, especially for the tiny writing? Could my tipless bags be too soft?
Could you please show us a receipt for your royal icing? I've tried like 10 - impossible to make tiny lines and letters. It was breaking all the time 🙁
