YOU WILL NEED :
Baked sugar cookies Royal icing + food colors Scribe tool / or a toothpick Tipless piping bags
Black edible marker Sprinkles Sanding sugar
NOTE : RI – meaning = royal icing
Drying time – please make sure to let your icing dry properly between steps , especially if you want to use sanding sugar so sanding sugar doesn ’ t stick all over your cookie , you want make sure it will stick to those flooded parts only .
Thick RI consistency VS Thinner RI consistency Thick consistency is suitable for outlines ( creating border so then you can comfortably flood the whole cookie ), piping final details and eyes . Thinner consistency is perfect for flooding outlined areas .
