thank you!

Beautiful Leah.. I had a hard time with my buttercream sticking to the sprinkles/sugar. Any tips?

[@ButtercreamParties]

Don't be afraid to really push the cookie into the sanding sugar. But if it is still not sticking, the buttercream is either too stiff or too cold. I like my buttercream to be a smooth peanut butter consistency or softer.

@@ButtercreamParties thanks for responding. But I don't mean the dipping of the sugar I mean the outline. I have a hard time w the outline sticking to the cookie after it's dipper in the sugar crystals or sprinkles

[@ButtercreamParties]

Gotcha! The details on top of the sanding sugar. Yes, that can be a challenge. The best way to do this is to use thinner buttercream and/or warmer buttercream. It will both help the sprinkles stick to the buttercream and then the buttercream to stick to the sprinkles for the detail work.@@lisamartinos

Ohh ok so warm some up ? I. Can put the piping bag in the microwave? Or warm it up in a bowl then fill the bag?. Do you also use thin or warm buttercream to fill in the whole like the purple bunny?

[@ButtercreamParties]

I just massage the bag with my hands until it warms up. You can run your hands under hot water before doing so too to speed up the process. And yes, for both the bunny and the outline.@@lisamartinos
