If you use royal, how do you get it to where the surface is so smooth?

I agree..those should be in an instructional book somewhere. They are perfect!!!

the royal icing is like a consistency of heavy cream...flood the cookie, give it a shake and it smooths itself out!

Really cute. I love how you used nonpareils for the strawberry seeds!

Oh okay, so you don't beat the royal icing until its stiff like you would for making roses? Neat cookies, by the way!

I have toknow what icing recipe you are using. All these cookies are so perfect!!

Thank you! I just use the basic royal icing recipe on the meringue powder can - but add 1 tablespoon corn syrup so its dries with a shine.

Great Cookies ! You will have to join in the cookie contest :D Thanks for the tip about corn syrup.
