Anyway I made some Hello Kitty cookies and some Mustache cookies. they turned out pretty cute. My brother, Jason, came over the day I was working on them and took 10,000 pictures. Please note that all of these pictures were taken with his iPhone, not with a fancy camera.
It was like a party. So you will get a more exclusive look at the cookie decorating process. here it goes.
All my cookies start with a plan. Making these beautiful sketches helps me to know what colors I need and to see how I am going to layer my frosting.
Then I mix the colors (just making frosting takes me anywhere from 20-40 minutes)
The next step is outlining the shape and then filling it with the flood icing. I have to push the flood over the outline with a toothpick to get that smooth final finish.
Add any pattern I want in the background while the flood icing is still wet, that way it will all be one flat surface.
Put the basic shape on.
This is a rare opportunity to see me working on cookies. as you can see I work really hard to look my best while i work ;-)

AND COOKIES! Hello Kitty with a Mustache.
Don't forget to have fun with cookies!
I also made some pretty adorable cookies for my cousins baby shower this week. Unfortunately, Jason didn't come over to take pictures, so I only took one. Here it is!
They were a hit!
