Can you decorate cookies in detail with royal icing?? Do you have to wait for each color to dry before you apply a new detail?

I agreet!! fondant or MMF is so easy to work with. Attach it with a bit of light corn syrup. Works great, easy and fast. I have also tried Antonia's icing and it works great too! i love it. I don't know about anyone else but by the time i decorated the rest of the cookies the first ones where dried fast! and i was able to do little designs and such. I have 2 pics in my photos using antonia's icing. they are the baby cookies

I do cookies with run sugar (royal icing) I would recommend letting the colors dry at least a little before adding the next. I have a few cookies up in my photo if you want to peek. Alot of the decorations on my cakes are royal icing too.

I let mine dry for a little bit before adding other colors just to ensure they dont run. Also, if you are outlining a cookie use a larger tip then when you are filling. This way the filling has a little bit thicker of an edge to adhere to. good luck!
