Minecraft, take 2... this time with more FLAVOR :)

So I met the sweetest girl at CookieCon last November named Rachel. She lives in Wisconsin and is an aspiring, and super talented, pastry "artist" of all types of tasty treats. She saw my Minecraft cookies from before and asked for some to give her husband, Luke. While I know Rachel is perfectly capable of making her own cookies, I decided to do something extra special... just for them so don't ask  I took all the little bits of flavored dough I had in the freezer and made a variety platter for them. Vanilla bean, Red Velvet, Lime, Chocolate, Lemon and Gingerbread. Today is Luke's birthday... Happy Birthday Luke!

Don't blink... and have a happy birthday.

Hearts everywhere! Must be Valentine's Day

Here are some fun cookie sets I did for Valentines day this year... Conversation hearts of all sized, and some mini red velvet/vanilla cookies in a cute cup.

Spirit of Christmas, part 2... hope you have a sense of humor

This is not a trick, those are cookies :) These were all my Dad's idea... he sent me a pic and via email with the subject: "wouldn't these make a cool cookie?" Well that got my brain going because I loved the idea. Each cookie has a flavor to match it's color... Cinnamon, Coconut, Peppermint, Lemon, Vanilla and Red Velvet. I wanted to keep going but I ran out of icing to mix into new colors. These are on their way to him as a surprise with the logos, I hope the final product is a good as he envisioned because they were super fun to make. Thanks for the great idea, Dad.

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 :)
