Reply to "Royal Icing/Details Crushing After Freezing"

I honestly dont really have a clue, I dont freeze my cookies…but I do know that if I make my piping detail icing too dry and stiff and use it for things like lines it will crumble easily, with that being said, I wonder if maybe there is some moisture loss in the icing when freezing and once it comes to room temp the detail icing is now too dry and brittle? I wonder if maybe making the icing a little more moist than you typically do would help? Again, no clue, but just trying to help in any way possible. It can be super frustrating when your cookies fail after all that work!

I appreciate your response. I've not had issues before but with my last two sets. It's been horribly humid here in Michigan so I thought maybe that. I decreased my MP by 1T so maybe I'll go back. I just know I need to figure it out because the one order was four dozen and the other was three. That's a lot of work and a lot of potential for upset customers.
