Wow! Awesome! How many batches have you worked on since the first round? I’ve been wanting to make some, but I’m intimidated by the icing part.

I made 5 batches (some of them half batches) of cookies and 2 batches of royal icing. When the cookies ran out I practiced on parchment. If you scrape it off the parchment before it dries you can mix it back in and use it again. You’re not wrong the icing is very intimidating but once you start to understand it it becomes much easier.

Looks great! It is very fun. Last year I did some and ended up with a hand cramp for days. Getting old is a real beatch.

About how much did it cost to get started? Is it an expensive endeavor?

I bake a lot(just nothing decorated) so the only things I didn’t have in my cabinet was egg white powder which you can get for $5. You can get a box of 12 disposable piping bags for around $5 and a piping tip for around a dollar. I had a squeeze bottle but you can probably get one of those at the dollar store or get a thicker tip where you get the first? I’m probably a bad person to ask. Hope this helps.
