The 5 Main Royal Icing Consistencies: How To Make Them and How To Use Them (the short version!)

There are so many royal icing consistencies it's hard to know how to make them AND what to use them for. Ever wonder when to use each of my 5 main consistencies? Well here is a compilation of them all! **Note: you can use a medium peak instead for a lot of the stiff peak applications in the video! (that's what I tend to do these days) Full step-by-step video on how to make these consistencies:    • Step-by-Step Instructions for Royal Icing ...   My 5 main consistencies from thickest to thinnest are: PIPING: 1. Stiff peak piping (flowers) 2. Medium peak piping (outline, detail piping that needs to maintain texture) 3. Soft peak piping (outline, lettering, detail, line work) FLOOD: 4. Thick flood (one consistency outline/flood) --- plus: extra thick flood (minis) 5. Thin flood (two consistency outline/flood) --- plus: extra thin flood (for lots of wet on wet technique) Time stamps for the video: 00:00 Introduction 00:31 Make: stiff peak piping 1:01 Make: medium peak piping 2:01 Make: soft peak piping 3:01 Make: thick (& extra thick) flood 3:56 Make: thin (& extra thin) flood 4:53 Use: stiff peak piping 5:33 Use: medium peak piping 6:35 Use: soft peak piping 7:30 Use: thick (& extra thick) flood 8:28 Use: thin (& extra thin) flood RECIPES & CONSISTENCIES: How to make royal icing (step by step):    • How to make the BEST tasting royal icing w...   Royal Icing Consistencies (step by step):    • Step-by-Step Instructions for Royal Icing ...   Cookie recipe:    • NO SPREAD Sugar Cookies | Cookie Recipe fo...   My favorite products and discount codes for my favorite brands: https://thisisthegracefulbaker.com/fa... ***Includes my Amazon shop, projector, dehydrator, tipless bags, edible glitter/metallics and SO much more!
