How to Make PAINT YOUR OWN (PYO) COOKIES

Hello Everyone, I hope you get to make these cookies on day. They are such a hit and so much fun and everyone loves them. If you have an airbrush, you can simply airbrush the paint dots instead of painting them on.

[@susanmitchell3572]

I always love your videos. You are so talented and you give out such good information that’s helpful for us beginners and I love how you explain throughout your videos which is so nice because there are some that just do a video and you don’t know what’s going on or what and how they’re creating what they’re doing so you are so helpful. Thank you thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work. 18:57

I LOVE this video.... The BEST Video on PYO Cookies... Beautiful NOTE: ...The background noise/music was way too (fast) was distracting ... We just want to HEAR YOU TALK... or use music that goes with you beautiful voice (softer). Thank You for sharing this great video

[@LittleCookieCo]

Thank you so much!! And appreciate the tips (ill try and make sure the sound isnt too loud over my voice)! There's only so many songs I can use for free from the KZbin library so I try my best to pick ones that suit the video but sometimes there aren't a lot of options!

[@meladenegallant8533]

Awesome technique :) Is the airbrush paint oil based, or water?

[@cleocamargosantos]

They are so cute! Where did you get the disposable paintbrushes?

[@LittleCookieCo]

Thank you!! I bought those from Walmart! Some cookiers also sell packs if smaller brushes as well so you can fit them in the bags too, but I can't think of any off the top of my head (Borderlands Bakery may be one of them!)

[@curlthusiast]

How can I avoid that grainy look when I am painting with gel colors and alcohol? I read that 90% alcohol can help (cant remember the name), but where I am from I can only find up to 50. Also does using spray paint with water as in the video transfer proof? I need it to dry completely. Thanks

[@LittleCookieCo]

You can dilute the airbrush colors with alcohol! I know people do paint with water as well, just takes a bit longer to dry. As long as you dilute the color it will dry reasonably quick. If you use water just be careful you fo wet the cookie too much as the water eats at the icing. My gel colors never fully dissolve in the alcohol and so it's always grainy so the airbrush colors are much better

[@dianavellon6497]

Love this idea. How long to dry the paint transfers in a dehydrator between paint coats?

[@LittleCookieCo]

I would say around 20-30 minutes should be enough to paint another layer on! 😊

[@dianavellon6497]

@@LittleCookieCo I will try this. Thank you.

[@LittleCookieCo]

Best of luck!!

[@ephieupagus6108]

These are amazing! Can I ask why you don't pipe coloured dots instead if painting them? Just curious!!

[@LittleCookieCo]

Thank you! If you pipe colored dots they don't really transfer the colour onto the paint brush. This way it's almost like real paint and works much better 😊

[@ephieupagus6108]

@@LittleCookieCo that makes sense! Thank you so much for replying!

[@LittleCookieCo]

You're welcome! I know some people use skittles too, but the color isn't as strong as doing it this way, it's really faint but is another option too!

[@mariamboltman1302]

Hi there could one use fondant dots to apply the paint colour to instead of royal icing?

[@connieclinton1456]

What icing consistency do you use to make the paint dots?

[@LittleCookieCo]

That's my outline consistency!

[@mollybeach3186]

when painting the cookie how does the water not eat away at the icing?

[@LittleCookieCo]

If you use a lot of water it does but if you spread it out it's not that noticeable. Usually the kids put too much water on, but they still eat it!

[@janicepyke5313]

Could you use icing sugar instead of corn starch

[@LittleCookieCo]

Icing sugar will not work well, as it will dissolve and become sticky with the water, so cornstarch is best.

[@iqraaslamm]

Hello Can i use liquid food colors?

[@LittleCookieCo]

Liquid food gels aren't strong or concentrated enough to get the colours so they don't work too well. You can use skittles for the paint colours though, they are more faint but work well!
