There is nothing Scarry about these cookies

Richard Scarry is an illustrative genius. There, now you all know. If you haven't read a Busy Town book lately I challenge you to go back and read one without smiling. I was asked to do these for a young man's first birthday (fun fact, I got to do their baby shower cookies too). I had so much fun with these and while I originally was only going to do a couple cars, I got so caught up in the excitement that I couldn't narrow it down :) I think I got all the favorites (Pickle car, the Apple, Pig family, Goldbug, etc.) but by far, my favorite was the "Doctor Dentist," his expression and car just made me smile.

Ka-Chow! Car's cookies for Ollie

You may remember that I did cookies for Ollie's 1st Birthday last year, they were the first birthday cookies with all the images of things that started with the letter "O," if you forgot you can see them here. Well this year the bar was raised. They asked for Cars theme cookies, more specifically... Lightening McQueen, Mater, and Sally. Williams Sonoma had these great Cars cookies cutters, but no Sally. I decided to modify Finn and give him a gender switch, I think she came out pretty cute. It's har to tell but Lightening is actually a red velvet flavored cookie, I loved the bright red color it made the dough. These were involved, I'm not going to say I'd be willing to do them everyday... but these were fun :)
