Hi Woodysmum
I’ve never used Renshaw’s Royal icing so can’t really commment on that product. Royal icing can stay soft if weather conditions change. Sugar is hygroscopic and will attract any moisture in the environment. The icing on your cake will harden up eventually as it air dries.

Thanks for the reply .It was left several days and was still as soft ! I think Ill email Renshaws and see if it was a problem batch ?
