One of my favorite Valentine's Day sets ever: Love Birds! Yes, they're penguins! Penguins are birds ;) This was the set I used for a beginner class I taught (minus the lettered "love birds" plaques--those went into the goodie bags!). Watch on for a real-time tutorial of how to decorate this love birds set of cookies with royal icing!

Projector: I own both of these projectors. I first owned the Pico and purchased the Bluetooth as an upgrade. If budget is a concern, the Pico gets the job done (just make sure that you're plugging it in correctly!). Otherwise, I recommend the Bluetooth - it has a better/brighter image and connects via Bluetooth.

- Sterling Pearls (metallic dusts like gold): [ Ссылка ]

- Elite color (powdered food coloring for painting and dry dusting): [ Ссылка ]
- Master Elites (highly pigmented powders for coloring icing...a MUST for red and black!!): [ Ссылка ]
***Please note: my LEMON royal icing recipe does NOT work with all of the Master Elite colors due to the acidity of the lemon juice -- a VANILLA (non-lemon) recipe is best used for the Master Elite pinks, otherwise I use all of their other colors with my lemon recipe (I use Wilton pink with my lemon recipe)
