Has anyone used Antonia's icing for making flowers? Do I need to lower the amount of water? TIA

Cindy

I use it for flowers too. I thin it with one tablespoon of water per recipe.

Wait, it be used for piping? like those royal icing flowers made in wiltons course 2.

aside: antonia74 you make lovely cookies (cakes to), and im dying to try your recipe soon.

I have used it to pipe decorations. I just posted a magic cake in my pictures and all the decorations except the letters were made with Antonia74 royal icing recipe. I also have made letters with it. I think it worked great and will be trying it again.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info. I used the Wilton's recipe today, but am making cookies soon, so I will try the flowers with Antonia's next time. I love your icing Antonia, much easier to work with than Toba's. I used it at Christmas for my cookies and it was wonderful.

Can someone kindly post a link to the icing recipe here? Thanks.

The croquembouche draped in sugar strands on your website is so beautiful, Antonia!

I love this recipe and think its great tasting on cookies and versatile. You can make it thicker with powdered sugar for flowers, writing, ETC and then it for flooding or making decorations. My sugar cookies have never looked better. I always wondered how people make such nice looking cookies.

Heres the link:

Cakepro,
Are you wanting her cake icing recipe or the cookie icing?

The cookie icing can be found in Antonia's cookie article on how to make decorated cookies.

Her cake icing is Martha Stewart Meringue Buttercream which can be found on Martha Stewart's website.

Ahh, thanks. I was wondering what cake icing that is.
