This past month Tunde published her tutorial on butterflies, using several different techniques to decorate them, including one I had never tried: air-brushing cookies while the Royal icing is still wet, right after flooding the surface. Pretty cool. In today’s post I share all the cookies I made following her tutorial, and very soon I will show you the cookies I made on my own inspired by her class. Stay tuned!
Isn’t that a beautiful set of cookies? So different, and so much fun to work on. Air-brushing with two different colors or shades of the same color gives the background a wonderful effect, that you simply cannot get from Royal icing alone. I will be incorporating that in my cookies in the future for sure.
The three cookies on the top row were air-brushed over dry white icing, the one in the bottom was air-brushed over wet icing. The veins on that cookie were drawn with a pen after it was fully dried. All other were decorated with piping consistency black icing.
Some of the steps are shown below…
I am not sure which design would be my favorite, but I’m pretty in love with the blue ones..
And, if you want to keep it super simple, just a little piping over a naked cookie will do.
Thank you, Tunde for another great cookie adventure! To join her club and have full access to all her classes from many years, click here.
