I made 3 double batches of icing each approximately 36 oz of icing Then I separated…. And Colored … It was at this point that I realized that I did not have enough icing for the 24 Large Real Estate signs white and brown icing. All done!!! Test 3 Small scale, 1 dozen cookies, approximate oz of icing For my final test, I am going to create 1 dozen cookies with 3 colors I started with approximately oz of icing.
I separated the icing into equal thirds since I need the same amount for each color. I like to keep an empty glass on my workspace to flip bottles before flooding. Final Analysis: A few notes from these three initial tests: I feel confident stating that: with 12 oz of icing, you can decorate: 12 Large cookies, 18 medium cookies, or 24 small cookies.
This process is approximate, making it quick and easy to set up and mix colors. In all tests, the icing was almost completely gone after decorating. Therefore, a decorator should plan for extras if doing an icing-intense design lots of ruffles, basketweave, thick icing borders, icing flowers, etc.
For example, when I did the test with a dozen cookies, I started with 14 oz of icing instead of 12 oz since I would need three bags 3 colors for the piping icing.
Results: In all three test cases, I was easily able to predict and make the correct amount of icing so that I did not run out or have lots of leftovers!!
Setting up plastic containers with markings: First, using a liquid measuring cup, measure 12 oz of water. Then pour the water into a plastic container. Add 12 MORE ounces and mark the 24 oz line. For small projects I might also measure out a 4 oz and 8 oz line. Are you NEW to decorating? Check out this video on how to make royal icing!

I dries hard like it should. But i actually added another cup of powdered sugar to get the consistency i wanted. I will definately use this recipe again and often!
Read More. Rating: 1 stars. Recipe is quite misleading - I ended up using over a pound of confectioner's sugar to make it stiff enough to pipe onto gingerbread people to adhere decors on. Maybe if I were to ever use this recipe again, I'd use just one egg white and take it from there. I had a LOT of waste after adding all that sugar to stiffen it up. Reviews: Most Helpful. I used this icing to put together a gingerbread house made with real, heavy gingerbread and it worked wonderfully!
It hardens quickly so your house will stay together, but you need to keep it in an icing bag or covered so it doesn't dry out in the bowl.
