*This is a great video to watch to learn how to activate Master Elites!*
I'm so thrilled to bring you this beginner tutorial on how to make these easy and simple maple leaves with royal icing! The star of the show here is the Fall Master Elite Collection from The Sugar Art! For this set I used a vanilla royal icing recipe (not my typical lemon juice recipe) since the Master Elites are truest to color in a non-acidic recipe).

Some other tips:
- Use a vanilla royal icing for the best results
- Activate with water (use back of spoon/spatula to mix/activate before mixing into the icing)
- Use a dropper to add water (not a spray bottle! The color will go everywhere!)
- Start with a thicker consistency than you ultimately need (since you’ll be adding water to activate); I started with a stiff peak piping consistency
- Color to a couple shades lighter than you ultimately need
- Allow the colors to DEVELOP for an least 1 hour (overnight is even better)
- Once colored to desired shade, allow to sit for a least 15-30 minutes - sometimes “streaks” will appear in this time if you haven’t incorporated the color well enough at the beginning and then you can give the icing another good mix before using
- For the purposes of this demo I used 8 ounces (or 1 cup) of icing for each color. For the most part I used a total of 1/4 tsp for each color except the Burgundy which needed an additional 1/16 tsp and this Autumn Gold that needed just 1/8 tsp.

***Please note: my LEMON royal icing recipe does NOT work with all of the Master Elite colors due to the acidity of the lemon juice -- a VANILLA (non-lemon) recipe is best used for the Master Elite pinks, otherwise I use all of their other colors with my lemon recipe (I use Wilton pink with my lemon recipe)
