This was my first attempt at decorating sugar cookies for an event. I know I need work still, but any advice on them?
I was having trouble getting icing all the way to the edge of the cookies without it running off a little, so some of them have more cookie showing than I wanted. Do you think I need to thicken up my flood more? I used 2 thickness of icing, one for outline and detail work and one to flood, should I have used a thicker one for detail work?
I want to start selling them for events so I’m going to keep practicing but they aren’t as professional as other ones I’ve seen, thoughts on how to price them?

Practice. Lots of practice.
Practice practice, especially with consistency. They look good out the gate👏🏻👏🏻
They look great! I’d just say to try using a bit thicker of icing for the details/writing.
But these are waaayy better than my first attempts lol
Icing consistency is pretty good here as far as flood
The only advice I’d give you right now besides just to practice is to A) learn consistency needed for writing on the cookies- needs to be thicker than what you used because it looks like it spread out as you piped. And then B) cut your piping bag holes smaller to get a finer detail instead of the larger lines
You did great!
