Cookie Connection Owl Tutorial, and a new video now up!


If you'd like to know how to make these owls, head on over to Cookie Connection to see my latest featured post 'Owl Egg Egg Owl'... 

(and while you're there, don't forget my Coffee Pot Cookie tutorial, and visit Yankee Girl Yummies's great tutorials!)

I made a version on a circle too, with hooty music!


Have a lovely Easter!

Olaf from Frozen Cookie Tutorial

This is the first of several posts showing how I make cookies with characters from Disney's Frozen. These were party favours of Olaf's face. The second part features Princesses Anna and Elsa cookies and this later post is a tutorial for creating royal icing eyes.

To start with I flooded the cookies with a cool blue colour, and while still wet, sprayed with silver from a low angle, so that the sheen was off set. I've been using hexagons for these sorts of cookies a lot as I love the shape and how they fit together, and straight sided shapes are a lot easier to outline and flood than circles.
