Christmas is only 10 days away... can you believe it?! I have another cookie tutorial for you and this time it's another sweater! Check out the cable knit sweater cookie tutorial I released last week. This time, we have a festive red and white sweater with fun designs!
Materials needed:
~ Baked sugar cookies - You can get a similar cookie cutter HERE.
~ Royal Icing
~ Red gel food coloring - You can get a pack HERE.
~ Scribe
~ Piping bags
The royal icing consistencies should be as follows:
*White royal icing - medium to stiff consistency
*Red royal icing - medium consistency
For this design, you do not need to use any specific type of tip. I simply the desired hole size at the tip of the piping bag. If you get any bubbles while piping, simply use your scribe or toothpick and smooth it out.
Step 1
Make sure your baked cookie is completely cooled before adding any royal icing. You'll want to start flooding the body of the sweater. Let the icing sit for 5 minutes.
Step 2
Once the body of the sweater has dried slightly, fill in the sleeves with the red icing.
Step 3
This is the last step, can you believe it? Simply make designs using the white royal icing. You could do alternating hearts with diamonds, or snowflakes, or even reindeer. This step is where you can let your creativity flow. Use your scribe to smooth out imperfections or to clean up certain areas for a cleaner and sharper look.
