My co-worker's daughter is turning dirty 30! She was planning a martini themed party and asked me to make cookies and a cake. I decided to decorate the cookies to look like drawn images of cocktails. I also made smaller round scalloped cookies. For the cake, I kept with the theme and put the green martini on top. Happy 30th Birthday Sarah!
Elliott's daycare held a silent auction to raise money for improvements to the playground and as a contribution, I made these "FAMILY" themed cookies.
One of Elliott's daycare teachers celebrated her birthday today. For her birthday, I decided to make cookies that spelled out her name. I decorated the cookies with roses and swirls and then painted them with rose and gold lustre dust. Happy Birthday Siew!
These cookies were made and decorated in a pharmacy theme to help kick off a project at work. The cookies were my melt in your mouth shortbread cookies and were iced with royal icing. Blue modelling chocolate pills and multi-coloured nonpareils were also used as decorations.
According to Feng Shui, a fish represents wealth and prosperity because the actual word in Chinese for fish, in Pinyin: yú, 魚, also translates to “abundance” 裕 Pinyin: yù. This year, I made both goldfish and lucky chinese coin cookies to celebrate the new year! Happy Chinese New Year Everyone!
These stork cookies were made to announce a pregnancy to coworkers. I kept to three colours to keep a theme but created interest by texturing some of the storks and painting the hearts with lustre dust.
A friend of mine owns TYTAN, they design beautiful and affordable custom ties and bow ties for weddings & special events. They were hosting an event to showcase some of their new designs, and asked me to make some cookies for the big day. I made my melt-in-your-mouth Shortbread Cookies and iced them with royal icing before applying an edible image of the TYTAN logo. I love how they turned out - simple and classy.

My Little Pony, My Little Pony Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhh... I loved My Little Pony as a little girl and was so happy to see them make a come back! I find the next generation ponies much cuter with their big anime eyes! I was asked to make a cake and some cookies for a My Little Pony/Skylanders party. For the My Little Pony theme, I made a cake with a Rainbow Dash topper. Rainbow Dash was sculpted out of modelling chocolate as was the rainbow. The clouds are made out of fondant. The cake is a Classic Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Buttercream

A friend of mine is celebrating his birthday today so I thought I'd surprise him with some birthday cookies! I've had these mason jar cookies for a while now but had yet to decorate them to look like mason jars. The cookies are my melt in your mouth vanilla bean shortbread cookies and they are decorated with royal icing. Happy Birthday David!
