Your questions, our advice
Does the color hold after the icing has fully dried?
Yes, the color remains stable after the royal icing has fully dried, which takes about 24 hours. This makes it suitable for decorated cookies sold several days after they are made.
How much should I use for a highly saturated shade?
Start with 5 to 10 drops per 250 g of mixture and adjust in increments of 2 to 3 drops until you reach the desired shade, allowing it to rest between additions.
Does the 20 ml bottle have a dropper?
Yes, the soft bottle has a dropper opening: a gentle squeeze dispenses a precise drop.
