Hi Leeann,

I do use a Kitchenaid Stand Mixer, but when I add color to my royal icing I like using smaller bowls that fit in my hand. Sorry to confuse you.

You mentioned making your icing in a stand mixer and then you mention using a special bowl. Do you transfer from the stand mixer? At what point? Is the special bowl just for mixing colors?

Hi Mary! I am glad you are finding information on things that help you. I will do a tutorial and post it Saturday on how I get the icing into my bottles. I was always making messes and finally found something that worked! I will be happy to share but it will be easier to show you. So come back Saturday! Also, if you have any other questions I would love to hear about it. Others may want to know the same thing and I will try to do tutorials to answer as many questions as I can. Feel free to ask!

Here’s my question though….how do you transfer your icing to squeeze bottles with small tops when you don’t use a cup with a pouring ‘spout’? I had to switch from bowls to measuring cups (per Callye! <3) when I began using the bottles with narrow openings as I was making a real mess with overspilling! Still think I may need to take a new look through my cabinets to find "Mr. Right"!

Okay like two weeks later, I GET it. Duh! Yes, I have a fave, I always mix in plastic measuring cups that I only use for icing. It helps me see what I am getting! Awesome post!

I have made funky icing because of oil before. It might be a good effect for some things but not good for everyday icing!

I found that I was using my KA mixer for both my RI and buttercream (that has shortening in it) and I was getting funky RI) – now I just use a different bowl and bought a cheap mixer to mix my RI and it seems to look better and dry better too! THANKS!

Nicky, when I started doing this, my icing improved!! It was like it took all the guess work out of it. I really hope you try it!
