Hi, all, I just spotted this question in another forum, and thought it merited its own topic/thread. Can you help out Royal Icing Diaries with this great question? Thanks!

Hi, Royal Icing Diaries, Kim Coleman talks a lot about paint brush choices in this recent Cookier Closeuphttp://cookieconnection.juliau...-in-the-truest-sense

 

Though I would also be super interested to hear what others have to say!

FYI, a nice way to check a brush for that is dip it in water and flick the brush against your hand to shake off the water...if it held that perfect form, it's a nice brush! Hope this is helpful. 

 

By the way....Kim's work has been a real inspiration for me to pursue cookie painting.
