On the last cookie (bear with balloons) I did in this set, the bear’s nose was too fragile and soft even after its drying time. It was dry to the touch but not stable and smooshed when I heat-sealed it in a cello bag. I’m wondering if it’s because I used day old icing and just freshened/thickened it up with powdered sugar. Thoughts? Thanks so much in advance.

Hi, Sarah Krueger, Congrats on making your first post. I look forward to many more to come!
Was the icing still wet inside or did it break/crack into powder? I don't think drying time is much affected by the age of the icing; it's more likely your drying conditions changed as you went through the process. Though that is a small detail, so I would have expected it to dry pretty quickly regardless (by virtue of its size).
Thanks so much for your reply. It crumbled, like it was took weak, but had enough time to dry, especially since it was such a small area?
