@@hummingbird4235 I'm actually working on a flower design right now, so should have it up soon!

@@SharilynsCookieStudio sounds delightful. How long have you been decorating cookies? I'm interested in trying to start doing it myself.

[@fukurfeelings9711]

I could watch you decorate cookies for hours! Your work is phenomenal!! 💗

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you SO much! That's so sweet!

[@hummingbird4235]

You are so incredibly talented. I love your work.

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you so much, Marissa!

I love your videos! I'm wondering if these clips are in real time. I'm having so much trouble getting my consistency right. Seems my icing crusts so fast. Ugh. But yours is perfect.

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you, Debbie! I will almost always speed up my clips just a little bit (some are more than that, but those are obvious). I'm a very slow decorator so if I didn't do that we'd be here all day! 😆If your icing is crusting fast, make sure you aren't sitting under a vent or where air is hitting the cookie while you're decorating. That can make a huge difference! I've also heard icing can crust too fast if there's too much meringue powder, so you could also try adjusting that and seeing if it helps. Good luck!!

What is a 20sec consistency? Do you mind sharing? TIA

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi! I talk about 20 second consistency in my royal icing consistencies video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaLcgKWvhaqYnKc Let me know if you have any other questions!

How do you prevent icing bleed?

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi Kristina! To prevent color bleed, I try my best to not over color my icing. I think that's key! Most of the time, you don't need as much color as you think you do, especially for blacks and reds. Color it until it's about halfway to the shade you want, cover it and let the icing sit and develop for awhile (an hour if you can, or even longer). The color will deepen as it develops. It will also darken once piped on the cookie. Sometimes when I'm piping on a cookie, it's not quite as dark as I would like, but as it sits, it deepens up. I also use a fan, and I think this helps as well. Also, I find thinner icing seems to color bleed more, and my thinnest icing is about 20 second, which is pretty thick for flooding. I hope this helps!

[@miranduuuh17]

How many seconds is your icing??

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi Miranda! I usually use 20 second icing to both outline and flood. I hope that helps!

[@elizabethj3171]

Hi! What airbrush system do you use? Is it the one linked? Thanks!

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi! Yes, it's the one linked. The Master Airbrush from Amazon. I hope that helps!

[@FarheenKazmiOfficial]

Awesome video u done awesome work I will try soon

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you, and good luck! 💙

[@lisatruitt9889]

Hi I love your cookie designs! How thick do you roll out your cookies?

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi Lisa! Thank you so much! I'm so sorry I'm just now getting back to you. Somehow I missed your question! I roll my cookies to 3/8", so they're definitely on the thicker side. If you have any other questions, let me know and I promise I'll get back to you much quicker! 😂

[@lisatruitt9889]

No worries! Thanks for replying!

[@suzanwoodke2900]

Where did you get your unicorn cutter, I looked on your supply list but I didn't see it.

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hi Suzan! I totally meant to add that; so sorry! I've updated the description, but this is the cutter: etsy.me/2XI8zpL I hope that helps!

[@wendyzepeda817]

Beautiful! How long are the cookies good for? I want to make some for my daughter birthday and want to prep as much as I can. Thanks!

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you! I've eaten cookies a few weeks after they were made and they still tasted good (they were in an airtight container). I don't know that I would officially recommend doing that just to be safe, LOL but a week or so should be fine!

[@wendyzepeda817]

@@SharilynsCookieStudio Thank you!

[@myrag1316]

I’m loving your videos! Very detailed and helpful 😊 You got a new subscriber! I was wondering if you can make some minions cookies?

[@Hot8903]

How much do you charge people for these designs?

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Hello! I'm sorry I'm just now getting back to you on this. I'm not currently open for custom orders. Back when I was just starting out and learning, I charged $36/dozen. Now I would charge more; how much more though I'm not sure! These cookies definitely take a lot of time; more time than most people realize and definitely more time than I thought before I started making them!

[@EstudioDulceByVale]

Very nice!

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you so much! (And I'm so sorry for the late reply - somehow I missed your comment!) 💕

[@hyruledreamer9229]

Beautiful design! You’re so talented. I hope to be as good as you one day

[@SharilynsCookieStudio]

Thank you so much! You TOTALLY can; I promise! It's just a matter of practicing!
