Thank you! I just ordered some lemon flavoring from Spices, etc. I like that lemon cuts the sweetness of the royal icing but find that I get an uneven surface on my flood when I use lemon juice to flavor the icing as part of the water – I don’t know if it’s too much acid or something? Anyway I went back to using vanilla & water only and had 4 batches without a single dimple/uneven surface so it must just be the lemon juice. Which made me so sad, but now I’ll try this flavoring and see if that gives me the same zesty flavor. Thanks for the referral!

In reply to Ang. I felt the same way I discovered Sweet Hope. It is half RI and half glaze. Perfect “bite” ?

Newbie here! Wondering how to get the different consistencies for the flood and the outlines? Is it the same? Kinda confused

Hi Taylor I add 1 Tablespoon or 1 1/2 Tablespoons of clear Karo syrup to help soften my icing and it has worked for me. Experiment with it. I did. They came out with a soft bite. : )
