PacMan Themed Birthday Day ... Apple Cookies

More on our PacMan party themed birthday party. I've shown the PacMan cookies and the Ghost Cookies today it's the Apple Cookies. Now My plan was to do Apple and Cherry cookies both are something PacMan eat in the game. WELL Amazon let me down and the Cherry cookie cutter arrived the MORNING of the party!

If you're in need or cookies for a party or just to eat, shoot me a msg at SweetPea Cookie Therapy. Thank you!


What you Need:
Apple Cookie Cutter
Royal Icing - Red and Green
Pipping Bags


I had an apple cutter on hand from a Descendants party I did a while back for a friend. This has the bite taken out of it, which I made like PacMan took a bite out of them ... lol. I piped on the red for the apple and green for the leaf. Simple, easy design that was perfect for the theme.

Julie Usher, she has a GREAT YouTube video on how to make, color and make consistency adjustments

Royal Icing what you need:
2 lbs Powdered Sugar
1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar
5 Large Egg Whites (or equivalent) 
Flavor to Taste
Gel Icing Color

Mix powder sugar and cream of tartar in your mixer, just to make sure it is incorporated in. Slowly add egg whites, then whip start of slow then go to very high speed. She says around 2 minutes, my friend had an older mixer so it took almost 10 minutes. You want stiff peaks that hold on and won't fall off the spoon. Add in your flavor, I would suggest you use a clear flavoring.  This would be the glue texture great for ginger bread houses etc.

Take 1 cup of royal icing in a smaller bowl then add your coloring, lightly mix so you don't get air into the the icing. I'm like her and like the gel coloring. 

For Top Coating - Add 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 tsp Water (This is if you don't want to outline and flood)
For Outlining - Add 1/2 to 3/4 tsp Water
For Flooding  - Add 2 to 3 tsp Water

WATCH her video on How to Top-Coat, Outline, and Flood Cookies. YES it is around 7 minutes BUT if you have never done this technique it's a MUST she explains it perfectly.
