CookieCrazieBasics: Decorate With Glaze - Outline & Flood
FINALLY it's time to DECORATE!
The most basic part of decorating sugar cookies is the base coat.
It is just a matter of outlining the shape and then adding the icing to cover everything within the outline (flood).
In the photos above, I used my typical sized tips for outline and flood.
I generally outline with a #2 round tip and then flood with a #4 round tip.
However....there are times when it is best to outline with a #1.5 tip in order to achieve a more precise form.
To learn how to layer details on the cookie once the outline and flood are in place, go to
