Watercolor, in the context of decorating royal icing cookies, involves suspending gel food colors in water and applying them to the cookie surface. This technique creates delicate and translucent artworks on the cookies, allowing for subtle color blending and a fluid, ethereal appearance in the final design. Let our cookies inspire your creativity! With charming designs of foxes, raccoons, paws, and teepees with feather accents, these Watercolor Painted Woodland Cookies will spark your imagination.
Instructions
Outline and flood cookies with royal icing, ensuring a smooth finish with a scribe tool. Allow cookies to dry overnight.
Mold feathers from fondant using a feather silicone mold, and leave them to dry overnight.
Paint the molded feathers and the royal icing cookies with watercolors prepared from gel food color and water.
Utilize an edible food marker to draw eyes, noses, mouths, and other details on the cookies. Add tethers where you'll attach the molded feathers for dimension.
Enjoy creating your beautifully detailed cookie artworks!
