Dipping cookies came into my life and is WONDERFUL. My MIL used to paint her Christmas cookies and we weren't sure if painting on top of icing would work, thus my falling over your GORGEOUS little pretties. You should sell those in a local coffee shop! Thanks so much for the info.liveyourlovoutloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07120404914868731978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-11752770608708503482011-02-10T14:46:51.068-08:002011-02-10T14:46:51.068-08:00Absolutely gorgeous Mari!!!

Oh...Hello Chloe, Thank you for your kind comments!<br /><br />Oh, that is unfortunate about the paint not drying. Probably the rolled icing (fondant?) is the cause of the problem.<br /><br />Royal icing is very easy to make (there are also mixes available to which you just add water.) To make your own you might try a "google" search to find a recipe for it. Here is one:<br /><br />http://www.joyofbaking.com/RoyalIcing.html<br /><br />I hope this helps!Mari @ Once Upon a Platehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16780341844995085098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-27320676395791500422010-12-09T15:41:20.737-08:002010-12-09T15:41:20.737-08:00Hello :)

I used pre-made icing from a roll (I don't know what royal icing is I'm afraid!) but that was nearly 4 days ago and the colouring is still not completely dry :(<br />Do you know if it's the icing I used (not absorbant enough etc.) or the food colouring?<br />Any help would be very much apprciated!<br />Thank you, and lovely cookies by the way!<br />Chloe :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16835257599636691474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-57176733020563346672010-01-12T05:28:09.360-08:002010-01-12T05:28:09.360-08:00Mari, I'm a newbie to your wonderful site - se...Mari, I'm a newbie to your wonderful site - seems like I'm a few "years" behind your first entry - but I'll try to catch up! Question re your artistic painted cookies - where is your favorite place/site to buy the various shaped cookie cutters? Especially the bird houses and the bees.<br /><br />I'm so thankful I found your blog - blessed are we for your gifts. I just completed the Wilton 4 Course cake decorating classes and to make these cookies would be the Grand Finale of baking and decorating to me.<br /><br />Judy Beatty<br />Houston, Texas<br />jabreb@msn.comJudy B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630857423783823238.post-46715009815511533312009-02-10T04:52:00.000-08:002009-02-10T04:52:00.000-08:00Thank you Kathleen!Oh, you'll do fine, I love that...Thank you Kathleen!<BR/><BR/>Oh, you'll do fine, I love that there are no "rules" when it comes to painting. :)<BR/><BR/>I'm sure your mom will be thrilled.
