Icing tips: (2) Wilton #1’s and a Wilton #4 (I often use a PME #1.5 in place of a Wilton #1)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Outline and fill the sugar cookie with blush pink flooding icing and let dry. Using a #1 tip, I typically outline a few cookies first, and then I fill in with a #4 tip. Shake the cookie slightly to evenly distribute the icing and use your scriber tool (or toothpicks) to get rid of any air bubbles. Let this first layer dry at least 12 hours before moving on to the next step.

2. When the cookie is totally dry, place your diamond template in the center of your cookie and mark tiny holes with your modeling tool (or a pin) where all the lines meet. Make sure you go right through the template and the layer of icing. Lift your template away. If the holes aren’t visible enough, you can mark the pinholes again with an edible marker.

3. With your gold or light ivory piping icing and a tip #1, connect the dots until you’ve made the diamond pattern.

4. While that is drying, mix up some gold luster dust with a few drop of Vodka (or clear vanilla extract). Mix really well. Paint your lines gold.
