      @@alexandrealavoie3640 I've done it with honey to ice gingerbread cutout cookies in the past and it worked out fine. It's more important to make sure you don't put in too much milk to start as standard bottled honey has more moisture in it than corn syrup, corn syrup (and honey in that case) adds to the shiny, smooth texture once the icing sets, and the viscosity as you're working with it.

    Danngggg I'm amazed. I've been looking for an excellent recipe for icing for cookies and I didn't wanna go through the whole raw egg royal icing drama. This video just popped outta nowhere when I stopped trying to search and was just scrolling randomly through my feed and boy am I so happy and grateful. You're amazing and I thank you so much for this recipe. It's appreciated.
    Xoxo love from Trinidad

  • @nievesvarela8308
    @nievesvarela8308 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Great vid! I'm here to make some comments about royal icing though: 1. You can totally use just ONE consistency to decorate! Just get it on a medium. I understand the learning curve is different from this one icing (like you said, this one levels up nicely) and not everyone is decorating all year round to acquire the technique. 2. For those of you concerned about raw eggs, you can use meringue or egg white powder, that's what most cookie decorators use.
    Anyway, keep the great work, John!

Like, on its own it is cloyingly sweet, so I was, admittedly, nervous, but I’ve never had one of your recipes fail me yet, so I went ahead and put it on my sugar cookies (ALSO your recipe!) and it really was PERFECT 🙌🏼 It was super easy to work with, set up beautifully, and didn’t overwhelm my cookies at all! I’m so excited to have pretty cookies to ship to my friends and family this year! Thank you!!! 🖤
