A Beginner’s Adventures in Decorating Part 3: What to do with the extra dough and icing?

I had some left over icing from the party crocs as well as a little ball of dough- so why not have some fun?

What I learned:

• It is fun and challenging to work within limitations! I tried to play with 2d and 3d shapes while working with a limited colour palette.

• You can scrape off details if you make a mistake, just be aware dark will stain light.

• Royal icing can thin out in the bag over time?? I need to read up on this…

• Propping a cookie up for photographs can really help add dimension to an image. Flare can become dynamic!

I’m going to think about Christmas cookies next. Something modern and fun? Or a classic? I’m excited to think of some colour palettes and can’t wait to share my progress.

Stay tuned for Part 4!
