More royal icing transfer-mania! In this video, I show how to make some of the shapes used in my bookworm and tiara videos, basically more complex traced shapes of two types - one where the outline is indistinguishable from the rest of the transfer, and another where the outline is purposely distinct from the flooding icing inside. Along the way, I share tips for getting the icing into very tight spaces, accelerating drying, and lifting dry transfers to minimize breakage.

 

P.S. Don't forget my special Club W (monthly wine club) promo mentioned in the video description on YouTube. If you follow the sign-up rules, you'll get a break on your first order of wine, and for each person I sign up, Club W sends a little money to me to help defray my video costs. Win-win for all!

I just looked at your video today and it brought a smile to my face because I made very similar royal icing transfer eye glasses last month.  I had the same problem with the glasses breaking in the middle.  I only let the black of my glasses rest 10-15 minutes before adding the white.  I've found less drying time gives me less bleed.  I made 55 of the glasses with zero bleed.  Earlier this month I did the ucla logo as a royal icing transfer.  They weren't perfect, but they made my life much easier.  I didn't put either of these on cookie connection because I was copying a college logo.
