Pearl Cookies

When I was little, I loved drawing pictures of big fancy dresses with draping fabric, which resembled those worn by Disney princesses like Belle and Cinderella. These pearl cookies are my grown-up, toned down version of those extravagant pieces.
Pearl Cookies3Here's what you'll need for this project:
The beige color used to ice these cookies can be achieved by mixing Americolor chocolate brown with a touch of Wilton juniper green (from the garden tone set) to neutralize it. That's how I usually make any shade of brown, but this time I used Sugarflair dark brown. I love Sugarflair colors, but they're not as readily available here in the US as Wilton and Americolor.
Start out by icing the cookie with beige flood consistency icing and a round decorating tip number 3. Allow the icing to dry 8-12 hours. You can download a video with full instructions on flooding with royal icing from my tutorial shhttps://www.sweetambs.com/blog/tutorials-a-z/op.

I made some blue and gold filigree cookies to go along with this set. I'm in the process of making a step by step tutorial on how to make the filigree design. There will be a template, too! It will be available soon in the tutorial shop.Pearl Cookies2
