A few weeks ago we were given the opportunity to visit the
Biscuiteers for one of their
Icing Lates classes. Now, we have been to the
Biscuiteers before - ok, ok, a few times,
see our post here. But this was the first time we had gone to ice some biscuits and boy did we have fun!
When we got there, we were given an apron and a name sticker so we could get to know our fellow icers! It just so happened that friend of the blog Becky, was teaching us, so it felt very friendly and informal. We were given a glass of prosecco and a choice of icing colours and then Becky showed us how to use the lining icing to make our later flood icing stay in place on the biscuit. We could have some practice on the greaseproof paper first and then got down to the biscuits. Sammy was much better than me, a natural biscuit icer in the making.
We then got to flood the biscuits using the squeezy bottles and popped them in the oven to speed up the drying process. Then we could add sparkles, gold or silver paint (edible of course) and add extra prettiness with more lining icing.
We had then finished, one and a half had gone by, just like that! We got to take them home in a lovely
Biscuiteers box too, which along with the apron and book we got to take home, is just plain amazing!
We had a great evening and along with the beautiful biscuits we got to ice, we had fun chatting with the other attending icers which was lovely. We would definitely recommend going to the
Biscuiteers for one of their
classes including their
