Lately, as you may have noticed, my creative cookies juices have not flowed. I have had no interest or inspiration in terms of creating decorated cookies. Maybe because of my icing woes (getting the icing to flow thought the tip without interruption... or maybe it's because I've been lazy (most likely option). Either way, cookies have not been given their due.
So when LilaLoa decided to have a cookie photo challenge, I thought... this is my excuse! So, here I am with a cookie update. I decided to try something completely different in terms of cookie decorating. I have been known to paint on cookies, but mostly elaborate designs. I decided to try this with a more simple design...
My challenge was to go out in the winter weather, braving cold temperatures, and adding the sparkly balls just popped the colours.
So, overall I would say that painting a whole cookie is not as fun as decorating the whole cookie. I had done one more cookie pattern, but am going to save that one for later. I do like the lighting outside! Maybe when the weather is warmer, I shall endeavor do more frequently take my photos outside!
They are very cute cookies! I too have cookie block, but for me its my colours bleeding together that's bothering me and I cant figure out how to stop it.
ReplyDeleteI love the painted cookie technique, do you use straight colouring or thin it with alcohol like painting on fondant?
Sooo cute!! I'm so impressed :D
