cookies deco strategy

salam semua... harap semuanya sihat.. cik ayu? sihat la sket, tak macam last week.. memula hubby demam, pastu cik ayu demam, dan skang jannah plak demam. jannah is having high fever, alhamdulillah skang dah reda sket lepas amek ubat doktor kasi (this is the 2nd time cik ayu bawak jannah jumpa doctor!).

ok.. back to the 'real' topic. how to deco your cookies as you imagine it'll look like? mari kite tgk gambar cookies cik ayu di bawah ni..

can you spot the difference between gambar 1 and gambar 2? ya betul! gambar 1, cookies nya ada outline yg clear, dan gambar 2 outline nye hampir tak kelihatan.
so here are the cookies deco strategy for both cookies:

cookies dlm gambar 1
1) buat outline dulu - bentuk petals daisy tu
2) tunggu outline kite kering
3) kemudian 'flood'kan icing dlm outline yg dah kering

cookies dlm gambar 2
1) buat outline - heart shape
2) kemudian terus 'flood'kan icing dlm outline td, tak perlu tunggu hingga outline kering. this way, the flooding icing will smooth out dan akan jd sama rata dgn outline. so outline takkan kelihatan nyata.
cik ayu ada label no.1 dan no.2 dlm gambar 2 tu kan.. utk deco mcm ni, you have to work fast! kalau anda kurang pantas hasilnya akan jd mcm yg cik ayu label ngan no. 1, kite boleh nampak outline tu kan? kalau anda pantas, hasil nya akan jd mcm yg cik ayu label ngan no. 2. just nice.

so the basic rule is: kalau kite nak icing tu smooth out, jd sama rata, then u don't have to wait until the first applied icing to dry. tp kalau anda nak ia kelihatan, then tunggu sehingga ia kering. senang kan!

ok.. skang mari cik ayu buat kuiz utk anda semua!
