I am new to using royal icing and have found that your tutorials are so helpful! I grew up making julekage and butter cookies with my bedstemor. Even though she is not with us, I know she would have loved to use this technique. She inspired me and I have been baking her recipes for over 40 years! I can’t wait to try yours and hopefully another 40 years of baking!

In reply to Jj. Lemon extract is the oily extract of the lemon. You want juice, from a real lemon, though the bottled, unsweetened version from the grocer will work too. You basically want an acid to help balance out the sweetness of all that sugar, and a fresh citron will add a brightness as well.

In reply to Jeanie. Hi, I am hoping since this is an old thread, that you have found a solution to the problem of the cookie going soft after decorating with royal icing? Have you? And if so, can you please share this with me? Many thanks! Xx

Fab recipe with really easy instructions.
I made 1/4 of the recipe with a hand whisk and turned out perfectly. I coloured it red and did this first before adding water in for a runny icing.

In reply to Donna.

I’m not an expert, but I bet that was a chocolate frosting (like buttercream?) with chocolate ganache over the top. Ganache is just melted chocolate with cream, and it gets shiny like glass. With the rum icing–again, I get it’s a buttercream to make the cake smooth (as a crumb coat) and a icing on the top. Check out the “fondant fancies” from the Great British Baking Show / Bake Off season four. You could combine any flavors that you choose!

In reply to Pavithri. Yes mine was the same! Seemed perfect after 1 pound... So was wondering if I converted to grams incorrectly, as I am in Australia??
