Hi Everyone,
It's a bit windy here but at least there's noreal hurricane coming through. What a relief. Anyway...
I made Antonia's royal icing last night and it came out a bit thick and it wouldn't stick at all. Did I do something wrong or is that what generally happens and you just have to add some water? The taste is great.
Thanks,
Elvira
Not sure what you mean by "it wouldn't stick at all".
It does need to be thinned after it's made to flood the cookies.
You can either use some of the stiffer icing to outline, then fill in with thinned icing, or you can thin it all and outline and fill in one step. That's what I do - by the time I get all of my colors mixed up and in bottles, the last thing I need is to try to keep track of which ones are thinned and which are not, LOL!
If you read through Antonis74's tutorial (How to bake & decorate cookies) she explains the process for thinning and how to tell when it's ready. If you have any more questions just ask!
Laura.
