For the Love of Cookies

I dedicate this post to Aritri, today would be her Birthday….

Some cookie sets take my breath away because they are so…. magical! Tunde outdid herself with this one, and her instructions were so detailed that I did not have much trouble to reproduce them in the coziness of our kitchen….

You know I don’t lie, so I must tell you I consider this an advanced project. You meed to master fine lines, and the right consistency for piping dots that say nicely round, not all pointed and distorted. It does take practice to get the Royal icing consistency just right but it is totally worth it. So many details in each of them… To join Tunde’s club and have access to this and countless other ones, click here.

Tunde provided the template to cut the cookies as well as the inner design. Once the cookies are flooded with the different colors, you let it all set and add the details with piping consistency icing. A labor of love, no doubt…

I honestly cannot pick a favorite, but in terms of satisfaction after finishing them, these three were the best because the details were so many and so cool to work on…

But each and every one of the cookies found a nice spot in my heart…

Magical is definitely the best word to describe this set!
