Treasure Map Decorated Sugar Cookies on Kookievision

My favourite of the pirate sugar cookie set! When I was a kid, I used to stain paper with tea bags and make maps and old looking pictures, so this is sort of a nostalgic throw-back for me. All those little details were so much fun to add, and you can add them in any order that you like - switch them up. What things would you add to your map? I'm sure I forgot some stuff!

Lovely, how many seconds is your icing please x

[@SweethartBakingExperiment]

I don't really go by "seconds", I just go by look and feel, but I'll be making a video about my piping/outlining, medium, flooding, and stiff consistencies at some point in the near future. :)

[@princessss42]

can you use food gel with vodka to stain the map?

[@elissaj69]

The map is crazy fun! How large is it?

[@SweethartBakingExperiment]

Thanks, Elissa! This map was about 4" tall. :)

What can you substitute vodka with?

[@SweethartBakingExperiment]

If you're hesitant about the vodka because of the alcohol content, I've heard of people using lemon extract, but I've never tried it. Some people will use water, but you have to be a little more careful with water because using too much of it will eat away at the royal icing because of the excess moisture - you'd definitely want to blot away any excess with paper towel and get them in front of a fan ASAP. If you're in the U.S and the alcohol content isn't an issue, many Americans use Everclear instead of vodka. The alcohol is only a carrier for the dye and will completely evaporate after drying.
