Reply to "Sinking Royal Icing"

Julia M. UsherFounder and Host, Cookie Connection; Owner, Recipes for a Sweet Life

Setting cookies in front of a fan also has the same effect as a dehydrator - quick-sets the outer layer of the icing so that the icing is less likely to sink. Also, using a thicker icing can help (the thicker it is, the faster it dries). Just pointing this all out, as investing in a dehydrator right away may not be needed. I usually set my cookies in front of an open dehydrator, effectively using it as a fan, because I find the fan in mine can disrupt the icing (put waves in it). The fan in mine may just be too forceful. All for now - on major decorating deadlines through the holidays, so I have to skedaddle!
