To continue with the Happy Birthday theme......
how about a slice of cake.
Mmmmmm
Oh wait, it's really a cookie. :)
My slice of cake cutter came from
Ecrandal....
but there's a similar one at
Cristin'sCookies
and a plainer one at
CheapCookieCutters.
Forgive me for failing to take more than one photo of the decorating process.
Sometimes.....I'm trying to do too much at once. Can you relate?
Outline the top, side and bottom of the cake slice.
Flood the top and side sections.
After the "icing" on the cake has dried thoroughly (30+ min)
flood the center of the cake with white glaze
(or a different color if you want a different flavor than "vanilla cake").
Wait at least 30 min and then add a frilly piped edge to the outer top of the cake.
For more texture, outline the edges.
And if you are as crazie as I am.....
add some black marker and painted white gel accents to the dried cookie.
