Many beautiful cookies and how to glaze decorated?

Thank steffanell. The first two pictures are decorated with glaze protein: a protein, a few drops of lemon juice and about 150-200g sifted powdered sugar 2 times. Whip with lemon juice until foaming, add the sugar a few times while stirring. The glaze should be smooth and put it into a cone and cut about 1 mm hole should leave a thin, long, unbroken line that does not spill. If you thought rare, add sugar if dense few drops of lemon. The other two photos I used ready almond marzipan pastry with colored paints.

Thank you dear for comprehensive response, lit me with these thy beauties of creation.

Very beautiful, delicious and certainly will try them
