Airbrushing and stenciling basics - how to get started & troubleshooting!

[@danielapagliaro8025]

I have the cookie countess airbrush machine. It's very easy to work with. The only thing I wish it had, is a cover on the well. I have spilled airbrush liquid too many times.

[@sheliaholland7911]

Hello, thank you soooooo much for this tutorial!!❤❤ I just discovered you, and your shop...🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️😁 I love how thoroughly you go over each process of cookie decorating!

[@sandibroad4099]

Thank you🙌🤗

[@danielapagliaro8025]

Could you do a video on how you flood the cookie to get that beautiful even edge that yours have?

[@chrisemerson9236]

I, too, would love a video about how to flood to the edge so beautifully!!!

[@elizabethcoward1968]

Thanks

[@1Royche]

This was very very helpful. It explains all my mistakes lol. I love that you airbrush over white icing to make it faster, but how do you prevent your non iced cookie on the sides to not get airbrushed?

[@pattywilliams6487]

Wonderful tutorial

[@bettywest8191]

This has been so informative and helpful. As a beginner I have been hesitant to take the next step up to airbrush and stenciling. I've learned so much from this video and feel now that I understand how things work, I can do this and I'm ready to advance. Thank you, always enjoy your videos and talents. Next stop , your store. Aloha

Fantastic video!!! This helped me so much Very informative Thanks 🙏

The icing. I don't use RI but use Icing Sugar Glaze with Corn Syrup to make it hard and shiny. The paint seems to 'bead' up on it. The cookies you showed seem to be 'dull' and not shiny. Would a shiny icing cause the paint to 'bead'? Thanks

Great video!

[@Soulkreed]

This looks outstanding! Simply cannot wait to look at more like this. Great job.

[@maryschneider2870]

This has helped me so much, thank you!

[@aleka52]

I just bought mine! D9 you have a video on how to clean it?

[@icedbymelissa]

Great video! very informative. Do you have that cookie cutter that goes with the "congrats" stencil? I checked the site and couldn't find it, but I already have that exact stencil of yours and would love the coordinating cutter. Thanks!

[@1daizie]

Thank you! Love your videos!

[@rebecacolmenares7307]

I jus opened the box and the compression is not working 😢 does this mean the machine is not working at all ??

[@robertaweaver9749]

So I just bought the airbrush system and bought the .4 and .5 guns. Would the .5 be for the shimmer colors?

[@annerogers7975]

How long have your cookies dried by the time you go to place a stencil and airbrush?

[@annerogers7975]

Got it. At least 8 hrs

[@ivetamuceniece4071]

I like the idea to paint white icing in desirable color - but I really think it's little groose that the cookie is painted than too.

[@teem9010]

why would a double action gun break that compressor? thanks

[@thecookiecountess]

Because the single action gun style compressor does not spool down. With a dual action compressor, the compressor is designed to spool down when you are not pressing down on the trigger.

[@bamabev79]

Thank you so much for this very informative video! I went on your site and on Amazon to buy your air brush kit but I guess you no longer sell it??

[@wimpydom]

where would I buy this airbrush and stencils and inks? Thank you, Wimpy possibly Amazon

[@thecookiecountess]

These products are all available on our website www.thecookiecountess.com/

[@wakeuptoBlessings]

Is there an airbrush oil based color (any brand) for chocolates??

[@thecookiecountess]

Hi! There is a brand called Dinkydoodle that makes alcohol based colors that can be used on chocolate - and used with our airbrush machine.

[@teriducote]

How far are you away from the cookie?

[@kristinlawliss5320]

I need a cookie recipe? How do you get the cookies to not spread when you bake them

[@thecookiecountess]

Hello! You can find our no-spread cookie recipe here: www.thecookiecountess.com/blogs/recipes-and-tutorials/sugar-cookie-recipe

[@rebeccasewing]

How do you get the base coat of icing so close to the edge of your cookies? Did you dip them? They look so perfect. Thank you for this video. I love it when you put on your teacher hat. Your videos are very helpful.

[@thecookiecountess]

Thank you for your kind words!! I get that question a lot! And next time I make cookies, I will make a video about this topic for sure. :)

[@thecookiecountess]

Are you on Instagram? I did some quick tip videos on this topic yesterday. You can find it on my "highlights".

[@rebeccasewing]

I went to "The Cookie Countess" on Instagram but it wasn't clear to me how to find the video tip. I see lots and lots of images and some videos but nothing relating to icing cookies. I watched your periscope video on KZbin. Is that the one you are talking about? If not, I'm clueless. When you say "highlights" I'm assuming that's the word folks use to describe all the images that show up on your Instagram page? Sorry, I am a member of Instagram but I'm not active there.

[@wimpydom]

Could you airbrush fondant?

[@thecookiecountess]

Yes!

[@shaunybennett4667]

Does cookie countess have an airbrush color for chocolate or what do you recommend?

[@thecookiecountess]

Shauny, for chocolate you'll want an oil based edible airbrush color. Anything with water in it will seize/separate the chocolate. We don't have any oil based products in our line, but do a google search and you're sure to find some! Thank you!
