This is my very low-tech way to write on cookies without a projector using royal icing. I call it the tissue paper method because it uses - you guessed it - tissue paper!

Hi, I'm Amber! My cookie decorating tutorials are filmed in my studio in upstate, New York. I'm a graduate of the baking and pastry program at the Culinary Institute of America and I've been decorating cookies professionally for over 12 years! I love sharing my techniques and I post cookie decorating tutorials with step-by-step instructions here on my KZfaq channel every week. Let me know if you have any suggestions for upcoming videos!

I bought a projector many years ago and have used it many times. It works great but it's big and heavy to move to my baking area. I love this method much better! Many years ago when I transferred images to sheet cakes I would use piping gel on wax paper to trace the image then flip it over and press image on to cake following the design using a toothpick. It worked! I've been decorating cookies and cakes since my first Wilton cake decorating class in 1979. Still enjoy it😃

@Sweetambs 3 жыл бұрын

We all have to start somewhere! 😄I’ve been doing this for 13 years so don’t put pressure on yourself to make the cookies look like this right away. This post shows what my cookies looked like when I first started decorating compared to how they looked after a few years of practice: www.sweetambs.com/tutorial/i-was-a-beginner-once-and-im-still-learning/

No kidding about the consistency->> What I would like to know, how your flood icing is stiff enough not the flood away from the edges, yet you can make base, roses and leaves while it’s still wet. Mine would be dry after 2 roses or overflowing the edges.

I have trouble with the edible marker color soaking/bleeding into the piped letters. So often the letters I'm piping are white, and no matter what color marker I've tried, the white letters (doesn't matter what consistency I used) soak up some of the marker. I piped white letters onto blue cookies the other day, with black edible marker. The next day, the white had little patches of pink here and there on almost every cookie. Please help! (I made sure the marker was dry before piping.... I did 50 of them, so by the time I got to piping, the marker was well dried)

@eloranewman3372 3 жыл бұрын

When letting the first coat of icing dry over night how do you store the cookies so they stay soft. I’m just starting out in baking and was scared the cookie would harden leaving it out over night lol

@Sweetambs 3 жыл бұрын

I had this same issue when I first started decorating cookies! Now I add agave syrup to my cookie dough to keep the cookies from drying out while the icing dries. My full recipe is available in my Ko-Fi shop ☺️ ko-fi.com/s/4a329bf7a7
