hmmm...good question. As I pipe outlines, I just eye the space outside the line to keep it even. This one was about 1/4" all the way around. Just easier than trying to make a "perfect" circle. That, and never ever let your piping tip touch the cookie while you outline. The string of royal icing is way easier to control up in the air. If you are about to make a mistake, you can move the tip before the icing hits the cookie and sticks.
I so wish I lived close to Canada boarder. I would drive in for your cakes/cookies. I'm still looking for rose water to try your lemon rose cookies. I can taste them thinking about them
are there any East Indian or Sri Lankan stores near you, Stylishbite? Rose water is so common in those cuisines. It's literally about $2 for a big bottle that would last you a year!
same icing you use to flood, really, how do you keep it not from spreading? and the outline is the same consistancy as the flooding? oh, cookies are fantastic...and the moss green really is great!
