![]() ![]() There is a video with full instructions on piping roses and leaves available in my tutorial shop. The roses shown here were piped using a petal tip 101 and allowed to dry overnight. Read my post on painting with gold pearl dust to learn more about this process. Once you’ve finished glazing your cookies, paint the exposed edge of the cookie with a mixture of gold pearl dust and alcohol. Watch the video to see how to create the cracked glaze effect. Use very light pressure to remove the dust so as not to smudge it.Īpply the glaze and allow it to dry (if you’re using the corn syrup/vodka mixture, it will dry to the touch on the surface but will remain soft underneath). Use the angled brush to remove the excess dust from the surface. The stippling motion will ensure that the dust gets into the scratches. Use a stippling motion rather than a side-to-side motion. Use the soft brush to dust the surface with petal dust. Use the scribe tool to create scratches in the surface of the icing. Read this post for a tutorial on making tiny roses in royal icing using the wet-on-wet technique. You can include floral details under the glaze by using the wet-on-wet technique when icing your cookie and then adding the cracked glaze after the icing dries. I also tried using pearl dust, but it wasn’t fine enough to get into those small scratches in the surface of the icing. For this tutorial I’m using CK products petal dust in mushroom, but you could try these FDA approved dusts from. Keep in mind that it’s not quite as shiny as the corn syrup mixture.Īny dark shade of petal dust will work for this method. I would recommend using the edible glaze as it dries with no stickiness. * I originally wrote this post before Wilton’s edible glaze was available. Corn syrup mixed with vodka* OR use an edible glaze such as Wilton’s Dab-N-Hold (find it in my Amazon Store).Completely dry, iced cookie (visit my shop for a detailed video tutorial on how to flood a cookie).Here are the tools you’ll need to create the cracked glaze effect: I think they would be best arranged on a pretty platter and used as a display on a dessert table surrounded by mini cookies and other sweets, or as a centerpiece for an Easter or Mother’s Day brunch. I created this design with the idea of an elaborate display cookie, rather than something you’d eat. These cookies involve a lot of decoration and, depending on the type of “glaze” you are using (more on that in the video below), they are not ideal for shipping. The project changed quite a bit from what I thought it would be originally, as you’ll see in this tutorial. The pattern that resulted from my clumsy move reminded me of those antique pottery pieces with very fine cracks in the glaze.Ī few months later, I was playing around with ways to recreate that effect. Watch the video to learn how to create this effect! This “cracked glaze” technique is something that I thought of a while back when I accidentally stuck my finger in icing that was dry on the surface, but still wet underneath. ![]()
