Cookie Cupcake Toppers for a Baby Shower
These little cookies were fun to make and I liked the idea of having an additional treat on top of cupcake goodness.
 |
| Saw this cookie on Sweetsugarbelle's blog ( the master of cookie decorating, in my book) and had to make them. |
 |
| Fondant baby heads on top of royal icing stayed relatively soft and good to eat. |
Hello Kitty!!!
Fun!
 |
| Note to self - If you would quit taking photos of cakes in boxes, you would not have to attempt to edit them out. Really. |

Two Celebrations
These treats were prepared for two celebrations that took place at our local senior center this past June. The first was a celebration on Flag Day to honor those who have served our country so proudly and to remind us of our amazing heritage.
The second gathering celebrated our wonderful center garden featuring flowers and vegetables. Volunteers did an exceptional job at maintaining this garden throughout the year.
My cookies were served at the celebration... bugs and flowers, of course!
