BEST ROYAL ICING RECIPE & Perfect Icing Consistency

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Welcome to the quick and easy royal icing recipe that will be the best royal icing you will ever make! This icing is perfect for decorating cookies!
Little Cookie Co's Royal Icing
2 pounds powdered sugar (1kg)
3 tablespoons meringue powder (30 grams)
2/3 cup of water (158 ml)
1/4 cup corn syrup (60 ml)
1 tablespoon butter bakery emulsion (15 ml)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (15 ml)
1 teaspoon white color (5 ml)
Make sure your bowl and beater are grease free. You can wipe down the bowl and beater with vinegar if needed.
In mixing bowl, add powdered sugar and meringue powder and mix on low speed. Once combined, add half of the water, corn syrup, butter and vanilla flavours and mix on low speed. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl. If the icing is still dry and thick, add some more water until combined and slightly glossy looking. Add white food coloring. Scrape down bowl again and mix on medium speed for 30-45 seconds or until the icing is light and fluffy. Be careful not to overmix as the icing can become crumbly once dry.
If the icing is too stiff, add a few more drops of water and mix until you reach a soft peak. If the icing is too soft, and cannot hold a soft peak, add a few tablespoons of powdered sugar and mix until the peak is soft but holds steady.

    Hello Stephanie. I can only say that I Love, Love, LOVE this recipe. I have been making it for over a year now. It has NEVER failed me. Easy to work with & the taste is AMAZING. Found ‘Little Cookie’ last year and the videos you make are so good. I even use your cookie recipe. Please keep making great videos. Thanks so much for sharing with all of us 😀💖💖

    I've used this royal icing recipe for several years. It is good. But just note: you will need at least TWO BAGS of POWDERED SUGAR to make one batch of this recipe. If you notice she adds in the entire 2lb bag of powdered sugar to start with. Then proceeds to add MORE powdered sugar that isn't mentioned in the ingredient list. I learned this the hard way that you'll always have water on hand to THIN your royal out but the **only way** to THICKEN it up is to add in a bit more powdered sugar. So if you don't have that extra bag of powdered sugar you might find yourself in a situation with watery icing & no way to thicken it up. Again this is a great recipe & I recommend...just be sure to have at least 2lbs of powdered sugar PLUS a bit extra on hand. Also I have found that a 2 lb bag of powdered sugar will easily make enough icing for 4 DOZEN cookies....if you plan out your cookie designs & colors ahead of time. Thought I should share that too. Happy cookieing! ☺️

  • @AP-qk3we

    It really depends on a few factors. Lots of different things can affect how long your cookies take to dry. But with using her recipe I have had some good results def. Some ppl say using a dehydrator (or a toaster oven on the dehydrate function which I just learned some have 😳) can really help to avoid craters in the icing. I think it's best to keep the consistency slightly THICKER and dry it quickly to avoid craters. I sometimes can thin it too much and it does me no favors. But overall I do recommend this icing recipe ☺️

    I'm new to decorating sugar cookies. I found a great cookie recipe last year, and I can bake delicious cookies in uniform shapes, but that's as far as I got. This year, I'm committing to learning decorating. This recipe tastes amazing. I've watched this video so many times, and I've made one batch so far. I've mixed a few colors, and I'm now practicing consistency, outline, and flood. I am refrigerating the icing pulling it out in the morning to warm up and practicing. I'm amazed how well the colors have developed. Today, my flood consistency was all wrong, but I'm getting better at outlining. This is definitely a craft that will take a lot of commitment and practice. Thank you for your teaching.

    I've made tons of cookies in my life, but I've never made royal icing before or decorated cookies with royal icing before. I've always wanted to, but thought I wasn't going to be good enough at it. Well, I mustered up the courage after watching many of your videos and I have to thank you SO much because I did it!!! My husband is very impressed! They're not bakery quality, but I'm pretty damn proud of myself, haha! I'm going to let them dry on a rack overnight and try to do more detailed decorating tomorrow. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Your channel is AMAZING and I just adore how thorough you are and how you don't rush through the videos just to make them short!

I have a big bake this week, my best friend’s wedding. I will be using fresh lemon juice instead of the butter flavor because it SO cuts the sweetness and it’s Spring! I’m gonna trust you!

    Spectacular again! I made your cookie recipe a couple days ago, with the dark brown sugar, and they are perfection. My first edge icing was too dry, but functional. My first flood was perfect. The white icing parts went great, my coloring will take practice...the black was spirulina green until it dried. I've learned TONS from your videos, and this one I learned to let the icing sit to allow bubbles to rise. None showed on my cookies, cuz of the scribe tool. Thanks again! (Oh, I didn't sell any, cuz I started them too late to finish in time for the sale, and my artistic skills need some practice. My neighbors will love them, though.)

    Hi Stephanie!! I just got into cookie decorating and am hooked! Your videos have been what I’m using to learn so thank you! One issue I’m running into and can’t seem to quite figure out- I seem to not be able to cover my outline with the flood so you can see it on the sides of the cookie. Or I add too much and it spills over the sides. Any tips?? Thanks!

  • @LittleCookieCo

    @LittleCookieCo

    Ай бұрын

    I'm so glad you enjoy them, thank you ♥️ a couple things, let your outline dry before you flood, it holds the icing in place better, if it's too thin (like you cut your hole in the bag really small) the border will be really small too, so make sure then outline line isn't too thin. And if your flood is too thin, it will run off your cookie more easily. Also, try no to put too much flood if it's on the thinner side. Don't worry about seeing the outlines when you look from the side. Mine are visible but from the top or when lookin at the cookies normally you can't really notice it. I have this video, it may help too seeing how I do it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/en2Np6OIkZbYqZc.html

    Thank you!! And I did, I usually use a lower temp, not very warm as I don't wanna dry them out more. It's more for slightly warm air and air circulation. Some of them get quite hot and you don't want that! Also your icing may crack if it's too warm as the change in temp sometimes makes it crack (like if you've moved the cookie too fast as the icing is drying).

    I know some recipes have called foe glycerine and corn syrup but I can't remember if I've just tried with glycerine. But I think they may be similar, maybe you don't need as much though. Royal icing can also be made without corn syrup, so I'd say give it a try, I think it would work!!

    I’ve used your recipes for sugar cookies and Royal icing for the first time about a year ago. I must say your recipes are fool proofed. I’ve only made them 3 times all together so I’m hardly an expert. But it appears with your recipes you can’t go wrong. I did cookies for last year Christmas, than Chinese New year, and just repeated the Chinese New Year just this past weekend. That’s very true that red is very challenging to achieve in the right shade. And for the Chinese New Year the right shade of red is very important. I started to worry I would never get that red right. It turned out perfect but I had to use so much food colouring it wasn’t even funny. After all that baking, decorating, and after all the celebrations, I finally ate one of my red cookies last night. My mouth, tongue, and teeth all turned red. Now… that was funny! All this food colouring doesn’t come off easily either. 😂 Anyways, there are so many tricks to the trade. I have used only three colours this time. I needed to simplify the process as much as possible. Three colours equals six bags of royal icing anyways. Read, white, and black plus some gold coloured sugar made the trick. Oh, sorry I’m lying… I made black only in one, the thick consistency, just for details of the design. My red flooding icing turned out just a bit too thick. I’ve only realized that when it was already in the bag so I had to work around that. I’ve noticed my bags were pretty stiff too, and with 2 edges, which made it tricky to make the outline nice and round instead of looking like a flat ribbon. It was nearly impossible to soften the tips down. I halved the icing recipe and still have a lot of icing left. I may use it for Valentine’s Day since red and white are just the perfect colours. The tips on how to store the icing come very handy at the moment. Thanks a lot for the tutorials. Thanks to you my cookies were great success! ❤

    Yes!! You can definitely freeze them and they taste just as amazing if not better! Just make sure your icing is fully dry before you freeze them, then pack in an airtight container, and when you go to have the cookies, make sure to take them out and let them fully defrost before you open the container. That's all!!

    Usually from the freezer you don't need to. If the colour separates in the bag, you can massage the bag to mix it back together. Thinner icing separates faster! I leave mine in the fridge when I'm not using it to slow the separation down!

    Hi ❤. What is your advice on why not to use the whisk attachments

  • @LittleCookieCo

    @LittleCookieCo

    7 ай бұрын

    The whisk tends to put too many air bubbles in the icing and it's much easier to over whip it when using the whisk. As much as thick fluffy icing looks amazing, once it dries on the cookies, it has lots of air pockets that make the icing less sturdy and break easier (like if you push with your finger gently the icing indents or breaks). This is what I've learned from my experience when I've overwhipped my icing. If you have a regular mixer with regular beaters, those are fine, as they don't whip as much and fast as the kitchenaid style whisk.

    You can definitely do it! I would just add all the wet ingredients at the same time (that will help it mix better) and then near the end when it's all mixed well, whip it for a minute or so until you see it change to a fluffier texture. Then, I would add a few spoons of powdered sugar to thicken it up if needed and stir it in with a spatula or give it a quick mix if the beaters can handle it!
