Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Cookies

One of my favorite kinds of cookies to decorate are character cookies, especially from kids shows. I do a lot of the Yo Gabba Gabba cookies but I got an order for Mickey Mouse Clubhouse-themed cookies so I thought it would be super cute to make "toodles" cookies. These were a lot of fun to decorate and I love it when kids recognize their favorite characters as a delicious cookie!

Summer is here!

I know that it's officially summertime when I get an order for flip flop cookies. These cookies were for a sweet little girl's 4 year old birthday party and they were so fun to make. I especially loved using bright purple icing this time! Don't these just make you want to hit the beach?

Unique Cookie Request

A week or two ago I got a really odd request from an etsy user that had a client in need of cookies. She'd seen my flip flop cookies and asked if I could make some that were feet instead of the flip flops. Yep, feet cookies. Feet cookies with MUD on them! This client of hers wanted to send them to her friend as a joke and I was happy to be the one with the business. So here are the muddy feet cookies. I just hope her friend liked them!

5 Blue Horses

My 4-year-old son is constantly telling us stories about his 5 blue horses (they can fly!) so I decided to feed his imagination (literally) and made him a blue horse cookie while I was working on some other projects. He was happily surprised, especially since he's always wanting to eat the cookies I'm working on for orders. And to say the least he loved and enjoyed it!

Tulip Flower Cookies

My family and I celebrated my grandmother's 95th birthday this last weekend. We wanted the party to have a fun, and spring-y feel so I made tulip flower cookies to use as favors and decoration. I loved that the colors turned out so bright and they looked great in their jellybean planters.

Ladybug Cookies

I made some ladybug cookies for a little girl's pink and orange ladybug themed birthday party. These went by mail this time and they arrived at their destination super fast (thanks usps!). I think they turned out really cute, especially once the ladybugs were wrapped up in bags with a little flower. I hope she had a very sweet and special 2nd birthday! Sugar cookies with lemon royal icing.

Valentine's Day Cookies.

I absolutely love Valentine's Day. Give me a day to celebrate with pink, hearts and glitter and I'm on board! I haven't started the cookies for this year yet, but I think they're going to be similar to the heart ones I did last year. I had so much fun just being creative and decorating all the different hearts that I can't wait for the ones this year. I also flavored them with a hint of rosewater to make them extra festive! Here's some that I made last year.

I'm baaaaack!

Ok, so since I got married just under a month ago I've got this great cake plate (thanks Elaine!!) that I feel the need to keep stocked for my hubby. Here's a picture of what it looks like right now...


These are chocolate chip-oatmeal-raisin-cranberry cookies from a whole batch I made. Yesterday. I made them yesterday and there's 6 cookies left! I guess that's a good thing, but it also means I need to get baking tomorrow! Since we've gotten married I've also stocked it with a spice cake with cream cheese frosting and chocolate chip banana muffins. I'm off to look for a new recipe...

More Yo Gabba Gabba Cookies.

So I have baked lately, just not new stuff. Here's another batch of Yo Gabba Gabba cookies that I made for a birthday party a couple weeks ago. I think they look great tied up with the ribbon!

Bright Flower Cookies

I made a few of these cookies as "thank you" cookies and a few more as a snack for a friend who was having a photo shoot done. Another pink & green combination that I love! Apparently I haven't been baking nearly enough because once I started decorating these I couldn't stop and I ended up staying up pretty late just decorating cookies!

Sugar cookies with lemon royal icing and sugar sprinkles :)

Decorating tunes were mostly Kris Allen with a few Adam Lambert songs sneaking in and giving him a run for his money.

First person to comment and correctly tell me who I honestly thought was going to win American Idol this past season will get my 3 extra cookies!

Yo Gabba Gabba

Hello Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend, I know I was super busy this past weekend. Here are some Yo Gabba Gabba cookies I did for a birthday party last Friday. They were fairly big at 4" and looked great with all the characters together. I only made a dozen, but whew- they were time consuming! Worth it though, since they turned out way cuter that I'd imagined!

Here's a close up of Brobee and more pictures can be found on my flickr.

For those of you not following the tv woes of the preschool crowd, here's a picture of the characters.

Decorating tunes this time came from the local country radio station.

Karate Cookies

The woman who reads the stories at a local story-time that I take Christopher to asked if I could do some special cookies for her daughter's 7th birthday party. Her daughter, Charlie, was having her birthday party at a Karate studio and wanted karate people made out of chocolate chip cookies with a yellow belt and yellow m&m's. I did the m&m's as belt accents and they turned out really cute! These were fun to decorate but were a little harder to keep together than sugar cookies.

Decorating tunes were a mix of 90's songs like The Wallflowers, Savage Garden and No Doubt.
