Teapot cookie from Tea for Two set decorated with royal icing

[@gem1819]

This might be my favorite set, it’s the cutest

[@LoriPeace]

I agree!

[@hannahpritchard9213]

Hey I was wondering if you could make a video of you making the cookies from scratch?😊 I would love to see it, I love the baking process mixing everything together!

[@southstreetcookies]

It’s on my to do list. Baking videos aren’t really my thing, but I plan to share a cookie recipe.

[@emilyholyoak6645]

so cute 🥰

[@Sandrastruyck]

Those cookies are just too cute to eat. 😊❤❤❤❤

[@jordynallen4134]

Really Pretty💖💖✨✨

[@starrwilson6818]

Adorable!💜

[@abbywolf9701]

Can I just say that I love how you describe consistencies? It doesn’t go into my brain right when someone talks about consistencies in terms of how long it takes to sink back into the icing when you drizzle it, but when you say toothpaste or shampoo I know EXACTLY what you’re talking about ❤️❤️

[@southstreetcookies]

I totally agree. The counting method never really worked for me, but hearing it compared to other products really helped it click for me. Glad it helps!

[@attitudeofgratitude108]

What determines if you poke holes or make squiggly lines to prevent cratering? Love your designs and esthetics.

[@southstreetcookies]

There’s no hard or fast rule, I’m still figuring out if I prefer one method over the other.

[@The_LoRaX_loves_TREES]

@@southstreetcookiesoh I just commented this too haha because I remember you did the squiggles and now you do the holes. Glad I saw this comment

[@araceli6798]

Beaty and the beast its miss pots

[@stay_curious]

How does poking holes prevent cratering? Could you explain please? Thank you!

[@southstreetcookies]

I honestly don’t understand the science. One of the reasons cratering happens is because the cookie sucks the moisture out from the icing and the holes helps prevent that.

[@stay_curious]

@@southstreetcookies one of mysteries of cooking then! Lol. Thank you for the reply 🥰

[@The_LoRaX_loves_TREES]

I always thought you drizzled the icing on the spot to stop it from sinking or cratering, whatever it’s called, but now you make the dots? Poke the holes?

[@southstreetcookies]

Either works! The poking holes is a newer method I’ve been testing out and it’s been successful too.

[@cCraterr]

I do have a question: why do you make a squiggle on some places of your cookie before you flood it? Is it to increase the height of the cookie or just as a reminder of the color of the flood?

[@southstreetcookies]

It helps prevent cratering, when the icing forms dents or holes as it dries. It’s only an issue in smaller sections.

[@i_heart_mlp]

What happens when you don't poke holes or scrape icing on the cookies? Can you please show us 🙏

[@southstreetcookies]

I have a video (not a short) showing cratering.

[@i_heart_mlp]

​@southstreetcookies okay thanks I'll check it out

[@soragruen]

Why don't you poke holes in the main part of the cookie?

[@southstreetcookies]

Cratering is only an issue in smaller/narrow sections.

Для чего проколы на прянике?

[@CherryJeany]

Canyou say again what projector you used please.

[@southstreetcookies]

It’s the Smart Sketcher from Flycatcher Toys! I have a discount code on my website/in my bio for it 🙂

[@thatviolist_leah]

Just out of curiosity do you bake gluten free cookies??

[@southstreetcookies]

I do not. I used to offer them, but I got orders so infrequently that my gluten free ingredients would expire between orders. It just didn’t make sense business-wise to keep offering it.

[@ElizabethLopez-zk9ud]

Is there a recipe to get the shampoo, consistency, and the toothpaste consistency? Or do we have to just keep testing till we get it right?

[@southstreetcookies]

It’s hard because there isn’t a separate recipe for each consistency. You just add water or powdered sugar to your royal icing to thin it out or make it stiffer.

[@ElizabethLopez-zk9ud]

@@southstreetcookies thank you 🙏🏼 and is royal icing the same as cake icing ?

[@southstreetcookies]

No, it’s a little different, royal icing has meringue powder. I have my recipe posted in my shorts, the quickest way to find it would probably be to search “south street cookies royal icing recipe” in the search bar.

[@ElizabethLopez-zk9ud]

@@southstreetcookies OK I just saw it, now I just have to find meringue powder I’ve never heard of that .

[@lisasternenkind6467]

Which projector are you using?

[@southstreetcookies]

The Smart Sketcher from Flycatcher Toys. I have a discount code on my website/bio link for it 🙂

[@ys01to]

How long does every section take to dry?

[@southstreetcookies]

I would wait about 15 or so minutes. I waited longer here just because I was working on 2 dozen cookies at once from this set and it took longer to get back around to the next step.

[@carolescalle791]

How come no white dots on the spout? It's pink 💗 too

[@southstreetcookies]

I thought the pattern would look wonky, so I just kept it on the main body of the teapot.

[@CDN1975]

Too pretty to eat.

[@Rivionna]

I like the white ones much better than the pink ones.. plus, for some reason, All i see is an elephant so it messed with my brain to see it pink lol
