If the icing is dry, you can try adding a small amount of liquid, such as water or milk, to rehydrate it. Mix thoroughly until you achieve the desired consistency. If the icing is too thick, you can also use a spatula or a whisk to aerate it slightly, which may help restore some moisture. If all else fails, consider making a fresh batch of icing.

Can you make butter icing with royal icing sugar?
Royal icing and butter icing are completely different products. Royal icing is made with beaten egg whites (often as dry egg white powder) which break down when in contact with any fat or oil. Butter icing has a very high fat content, so the two types of icing are not compatible. If for some reason no sugar is available to make butter icing, it might be possible to reduce completely dry royal icing to a powder in a blender or food processor, then use that in place of powdered sugar for the butter icing. But that would be a very odd way of getting sugar by way of reverse engineering.

How do you stop icing drying out?
To prevent icing from drying out, cover it with plastic wrap or a damp cloth when not in use. You can also store the icing in an airtight container to maintain moisture. If icing has already started to dry, you can add a few drops of water or corn syrup and mix to restore its consistency. Additionally, working in small batches and only exposing the portion you are using can help keep the icing fresh.
