buttercream all the way. I make my sugar cookies and frost them liberally with buttercream and then I put them on a sheet and put them right in the freezer to firm up. Then I stack them in a container and keep them in the freezer. When I want to I can take some out and put them on a plate and they come nicely to room temp
If you make your buttercream with butter straight from the fridge, your buttercream will get a hardened layer on the outside. If you let them sit to dry (I like to let them dry overnight), then you can stack them without ruining them.
it would be interesting to know more about the detail ability of buttercream. Decorating cookies with Royal Icing can be used to produce amazing details. Can you do detail work with buttercream?
Will Swiss meringue buttercream form a crust for cookie decorating like American buttercream does? I'm looking for something less sweet but will still crust.
so how well does both hold up outside? i’m a vendor and me and my printer own a bakery so we do lots of events and most are always outside . our events last 4-6 hours on end . will they melt?

Buttercream crust over so you can package them
Both are delicious, but royal icing is my favorite! I love creating beautiful, fun designs thanks to everything I’ve learned in your classes!
HELP... The Royal Icing I have eaten are just TOOOOOO SWEET to eat.
Do you have a recipe that is good?
I don’t see the link to get your pairing guide.
There are a lot of buttercream icing recipes now that are dry firm and crust nicely.
OH MY GOSH... Be Still My Heart...
Do you know of anyone that will share a good Buttercream recipe?
Thank you so much for your help.

I can't see the process 😢
We Southern Ladies say "Frosting"... (smile)
My buttercream does get dry sets up very nice
I love Royal Icing better then Butter Cream Icing.
I’m curious as to what your thoughts are about rolled buttercream?

Watching this because I hate royal icing but want to get into cooking decorating. 🤣
EXACTLY... I hate royal icing because it is WAY tooooo SWEET.

Buttercream can get very soft and “melt” in the heat. Royal Icing stands up very well to outside temperatures.
I wish I could have seen you decorate the cookies.
I didn’t get the transfer template
If you add shortening to your buttercream recipe it will harden
OH MY GOSH... You are so precious to share that secret ...
Thank YOU So much.
