How to Write with Royal Icing - Intro Class

This is an introduction to my approach for writing and lettering with royal icing.
Writing with royal icing is dependent on: font style, font size, icing consistency, piping tip/size, piping pressure, piping technique. Today, I’ll talk with you about how I approach writing with icing. This isn’t comprehensive, but it’s a great starting point. Once you gain an understanding of how I approach various fonts, you’ll be able to apply the same principles to your future cookies, and over time with much practice, figure out what works best for you.
If you’re a seasoned cookier, you may prefer different techniques from me. I’m not here to delineate what is “right” or “wrong”; simply here to share my experience.

@lynnlai9968 4 года назад

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

@BorderlandsBakery 4 года назад

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!

@tyradenson9599 3 года назад

@cindyalexis616 2 года назад

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

@BorderlandsBakery 4 года назад

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/

@JGibson512 4 года назад

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!

@BorderlandsBakery 4 года назад

Thanks! Now I know how to talk to fonts more techinically correct in the next video :)

@susanmartin3173 4 года назад

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;)

@aminajamal9561 3 года назад

It’s beautiful 🤩, may I know how did u do the cookie design?!! It’s beautiful

@SB-pc3wt 11 месяцев назад

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.

@BorderlandsBakery 11 месяцев назад

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 :)

@lettyboone5829 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing this! What projector do you recommend?

@BorderlandsBakery 3 года назад

Hi Letty, mine is pretty old but here it is: borderlandsbakery.com/cookie-decorating-resources/projector-for-cookies/

@jennybrink8869 3 года назад

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!

@BorderlandsBakery 3 года назад

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.

@ginamallano7608 4 года назад

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 :(

@BorderlandsBakery 4 года назад

I definitely cramp, but there's no numbness and tingling -- :)

@thelangelhomestead 3 года назад

What size/type of projector do you use? Thanks!! :)

@kyleemcgee2724 3 года назад

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?

@nicolacollins1478 3 года назад

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

@BorderlandsBakery 3 года назад

Best way to find out is to try with what you already have and observe results :)

@orze5382 3 года назад

Thank you for considering the situation, i've been researching for my mini shop. I wanted to ask, is it possible to have the base prepares for longterm?

@BorderlandsBakery 3 года назад

What is the "base" you're referring to? Icing? Cookie?

@mayamaxie1007 2 года назад

Do you have a link for your lettering examples? Love this!!

@BorderlandsBakery 2 года назад

Hi Maya, if you mean the lettering sheets, if you expand the description box, there is a link in there to the blog post, which houses all of that info. Is this what you are asking?

@teodorastefanova3873 Год назад

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 🙁

@soniarosario6972 Год назад

Do you leave the flooded cookie out of the fridge for it to get that hard? Loved the video thanks!

@BorderlandsBakery Год назад

Yes- royal icing needs airflow to dry :)

@hollykraft601 3 года назад

Hey Lisa! Do you store your icing in the refrigerator overnight while waiting for the flood to completely dry before detailing?

@BorderlandsBakery 3 года назад

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.

@suegendron2260 Год назад

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 👍

@BorderlandsBakery 2 года назад

Yeah it totally just depends- no “wrong” things- lots of options ❤️❤️🙌
