Birthday Decorated Cookie Sets

View fullsize

From time to time, I get wind of a friend anticipating a birthday, and decide to create a surprise set for them.

My favorite go-to cutters are:

• Cupcake
• Cake Stand
• Candle
• Confetti (snowman/baby rattle found in Sugarbelle's Shape Shifters set)
• Balloon (pirate face/whale found in Sugarbelle's Shape Sifters set)
• Gift Bag (shopping bag in Gone Shopping Collection from Creative Cookier)

It's super fun to customize the set for the birthday girl/boy's preferences in colors and shapes.

Happy Birthday one and all! ❤️

A Cookie Birthday for CookieCrazie's 4th

Balloon Cookies (Tutorial)

When I set out to make cookies for the CookieCrazie 4th Birthday Party, 

I wanted to make some basic birthday shapes

to share here.

Every party needs balloons, right?!

What if you don't have a balloon cookie cutter?

No problem...

You can use a hot air balloon, an upside down Christmas ornament,

an Easter egg, or even a plain 'ole circle.

You'll need to squish the last three to make them look more balloon-shaped.

For these cookies you'll need 

• balloon shaped cookies
• bags of colored 10 second icing (your choice)

Outline cookies with #2 round and let dry for 10-20 minutes.

Fill in each balloon with #4 round 

and add white reflection lines while still wet, if desired.

You can add various accents

like opening rims and strings if, if you like.

And you can have even more fun by adding

some real twine to the balloons for

added cute factor. ;) 

I love my twine from The Twinery. 

And to think that none of these balloons

were cut with a balloon cookie cutter.

Love it!

Cookies for a December Birthday GIRL

Happy New Year everyone!

I can hardly believe that it is 2012. I've written enough today at work to know it is real......but it still is hard to believe.

We try to prepare for it.....but when it happens, it's almost like.....wait a minute!!!!.....where did last year go? I want it back! :)

I promised I'd show the birthday cookies I came up with for Kayle, my son's girlfriend....who also has a birthday in December. It was fun to add the pink accents.

Oh boy.....this week I get to go back into the kitchen and start working on cookies. Yeah! I'm excited. My little "vacation" refreshed me and lit my fire again.................. Look out SNOW/WINTER related cookies and VALENTINES cookies.....here I come!
