Summer Botanical Series: Plumeria Cookie by Julia M Usher

Hi, all! My botanical series continues in this video with the tropical plumeria, or frangipani, made completely of contoured, individually piped and airbrushed royal icing transfers! Lately I’ve been feeling a bit stranded on my own personal island, so I made these pretty little tropical flowers to cheer myself up! I hope they brighten your day too! 

SPECIAL THANKS to my awesome video team Two57North and to @Manu biscotti decorati for her inspirational water lily tutorial which spurred this botanical series!

Great video as always! Thanks for the mention again 💙

Beautiful.  Wonderful colors!  Thanks, Shea

Oh how beautiful Julia! I love the plumeria flower and, as always, you've created a perfect royal icing replica @Julia M. Usher! The videos you produce are always professionally done and the detail is wonderful. Details matter. A lot! Your botanical series is a treat for the eyes, each and every one. Love them all ❤️.

I nodded at your comments regarding mesh versus acrylic stencils. I agree with your conclusions wholeheartedly. I love working with mesh stencils for the detail but they are oh so expensive . I've tried the knock-offs to get better pricing but it's almost always been a waste of $. Better to go with Evil Cake Genius' stencils for their quality when I want to splurge.

Hugs...❤️❤️
