Hearts & Stars Cookies

I am now becoming a little obsessed with perfecting my cookies. I made these for my husbands work. Just to practice and get better with rolling the dough and buttercream to the right thickness, and outlining more precise. They are a lot of work, but the finished product is looking better with practice.

Cookies

This was my second attempt with cookies. I was much happier with the outcome. I am beginning to really like all the options I have with cookies, and how they can be decorated. I cannot wait to do more.

4th of July

This was my second year doing 4th of July cupcakes. I once again used Reynolds ® FunShapes baking cups in the stars. This year the cupcakes are yellow cake, decorated with buttercream icing. I decided to use the basket weave tip for the stripes, then smooth ice the blue section. I used a #14 star tip for the stars. This year I was much happier with the final outcome.

Bailey's 1st Birthday

Ladybug Fever

I was asked to make my niece's 1st birthday cake. Needless to say I was thrilled. The theme of her party was ladybugs. Since I needed to feed a lot of people I decided to do a sheet cake with mini lady bug cakes sitting on top. The photo of the lone ladybug was Bailey's smash cake.

Mini Cupcake Swirls

These were made for a playgroup that my girls attended. They were the perfect size for little hands. I was told they looked like little sundaes.

Cookies

This was my first attempt with making decorated cookies. I used rolled cookie recipe for the cut out cookies, and a rolled buttercream recipe for the icing. I definately will need to play around with this some more to perfect my cookie making skills. However, it was fun and I am always up for a new challenge.
