I have never flooded with Royal Icing before and need to for a cake. So what do I do? Is there a special recipe of RI to use? Do I just use thinned icing and make what I need, let dry and then place on cake as needed?
You help is greatly appreciated!

do you mean like a color flow, but with royal icing? YOu just need to have it thinned down enough (they tell you for color flow to have it thin enought than when you drop some back in the bowl the outline will disappear in a count of 10, then it is thin enough. Give it several days to dry before trying to take it off.
okay now I am not sure exactly what you are doing. Are you "writing" with royal icing? Like royal icing lettering? or are you doing large piece that you will outline and fill in? If you are "writing" with royal icing I do that in medium to stiff RI, but I think you must be doing the latter. I havent ever used that for flooding a cookie or anything. I dont really know what the RI recipe is. I have only made the wilton kind.
Oh and by the way I really prefer the silicone treated parchment that wilton makes over wax paper. I find that things come off of it better, but if it is a bigger piece it might not matter. I use it for my RI lettering and FBCT's. Just my opinion though!!
