I am new to cookie decorating and am getting frustrated at my messy lines and blotchy looking designs. I know that icing consistency is key, but, if the icing is thin enough to pass through a fine tip it runs, and if I thicken the icing it clogs the tip.
I was wondering how long it takes ( I've probably made 6-7 batches of 24 cookies) before I can expect to get the clean, crisp designs that I drool over on this site.
Thanks for your help.
