I found an alternative to 'Royal Icing' that works just as well and does taste better. Not as good as a nice buttercream or cream cheese fronsting (which are great on sugar cookies), but definitely more palatable than Royal. So far no one I've presented it to has complained. You can search Allrecipes for 'Sugar Cookie Icing'. You'll know you've found the right one when you find the one with NO MERINGUE POWDER, just powdered sugar, corn syrup, milk and a few other things. You can add clear vanilla, almond extract, or as I prefer, both, to get a better flavor. This allows you to do those pretty decorations and still actually want to eat the cookies! It does dry hard, so they can be stacked afterward as well. I see it’s been 2 years since you posted this, are there any updates on a better icing?

I guess its solely for decorative purposes. On Honey B's blog she used Glace icing and was happy with it. I've not used or tasted it myself but she does say she likes it better than royal. Hope that helps!<br/><br/>You did a wonderful job decorating the cookies. Am I gonna be able to do that once my holiday package gets here?! :-) I'm hoping it inspires me to make cookies. <br/>~ingrid I’ve not had royal icing that I thought was tasty.
