I am wanting to make some snowflake cookie. I use RBC and royal to decorate. What kind of sugar could I use to go on the royal to give it some sparkle? Or what do you think would work best?

Thanks for the help!

Sanding sugar, coarse sugar or sparkling sugar. All slightly different, all will work.

Even regular old sugar will work. I like to tint some of it real light blue.

One thing that I forgot to ask is the best way of applying the sugar. I will have RBC as my base coat and will use royal to decorate. I am wanting to put the sugar on the royal. What is the best way to go about it?

Thanks again!

I place a sheet of parchment under the cookies and sprinkle the sugar on then gently shake off the excess and gather it up and re-apply.

You can also fold the parchment and have better aim by just letting it slide off the fold.
