All my daisies broke when removing from the parchment paper!! What happened? Is there another way?

Hi Michelle,

I place my cookies in front of fan after I add the royal icing. This will help the icing form a crust on the surface and it will help them dry with a shine.

As far as the 3D look, I just added royal icing until the section looked nice and full.

can you give a little more clarification on the drying process? how long and just on the counter top?? also, how did you make them to appear 3d/ slightly curved

In reply to Aviva. The thick icing needs to be thick enough to hold its shape which means once you pipe it, it doesn't change it's shape.

ohhh … great … that’s ones the teacher recommends.

I didn’t realise there was so much difference till I went in my local craft shop – several different makes – same numbers – but different styles !!! so confusing.

Hi Carole,

My favorite tips are PME tips. They are more expensive but they last a long time. Here is a link: http://www.globalsugarart.com/pme-decorating-tips-c-641_737.html

My next favorite is Ateco and you can find them here: http://www.globalsugarart.com/search.php?q=ATECO+TIP#/?_=1&page=3

Hope this helps!

Hi, I am in the UK – what brand of icing tip do you use – there are some variations on the makes. I am doing an evening course at my local college, so still very much a beginner.

Love your website.

Ok, these are way easier than what I was trying to do last time I made daisies. I can’t wait to give it a try! Thanks!!

Would you believe my wedding flowers were daisies? And I remember watching my mom pipe royal icing daisies for hours, making them for my wedding cake. She sure would have loved to have you around during that time – Love your daisies!
