Meringue Powder Buttercream by Karen,s Cookies
AI use a pretty typical royal icing but I use fresh lemon juice instead of water. I like it a lot better and my customers love it as well.
I tried out the Toba Garett recipe and it is great. Definitely worth giving it a go, dries so much faster than RI too and the colours meld together seamlessly while it is still wet. I don't know how it would go with any decorative overpiping though?

for overpiping, let the cookie icing dry, thicken up your icing with a bit more powdered sugar, then do your overpiping. that's how I did my messy squiggly greens on the pumpkins. they are actually pretty thin. I'm good at making messy squiggles lol.

This is what I love about the icing - how all the lines meld into the pumpkin underneath to give the pumpkins definition. A much longer working time to do this than you have with RI. I also flavoured mine with lemon extract and used it on gingerbread biscuits and they were really yummy. Thanks MB.
