Wow, Lala, thanks for the sweet comments (genious is extremely generous though!! lol).
Sometimes when I take my cookie pics, the icing is still wet, and that’s why it looks so shiny. A little less shiny, but pretty; sometimes I spray PME pearl lustre spray on the dry icing for a bit of shimmery sheen.
I have heard that corn syrup make a difference and i’ve been meaning to try it for SO LONG, but still haven’t!

I’m always impressed with what you do especially decorating cookies. You’re a genius!

I have a question, how come some of the decorated cookies look shiny and some are not, do you add corn syrup to some Royal Icing like others do?

Thanks!

@ sara-qatar:
Sure, a step-by-step with pics will have to be another time, but, have you seen the tutorial on how to marble royal icing? (The technique for the ducks wings). There’s a tutorial on that here:

(add on… and now a video on marbling here: http://sweetopia.net/2010/12/video-how-to-marble-or-swirl-royal-icing/ )

Happy decorating!
