Here go the Butterlies and Dragonflies!

More Spring Butterflies and Dragonflies off to a bridal shower this week! It's been a crazy week with all that I've been done!






I was in one of my favorite stores this week and decided to take a picture....imagine me taking a picture of something right? Funny! I love Baker's Rack for all my baking things. Cookie cutters, icing colors and lots, lots more - for cookies, candies and cakes. This is the best place in our area to get my baking things - a great assortment and she is a baker so she really KNOWS the good things!! I got a few new cookie cutters and some cool icing colors this weekend.


Happy Baking!

Spring Cookies

Nothing like having to post again....there was something wrong with Blogger...so this post I did the other day wasn't saved...so nothing new, just wanted to put it out there again on my blog.

Here's another Spring cookie order that just went out the door!! The event was today and I think they liked the cookies. Just an assortment but thought I would share what I've been up to. Some of the cookies are the same but I try something a bit different with each cookie...even though you might not be able to tell!

BZZZZ


There is a story to tell behind the finished product of the dragonfly. I was working on this order early, early AM last week. I was taking forever to decide which colors to use to go with the rest of them and had finally made my decision. Working nicely and about done with my flooding. When what should happen?? My WORST NIGHTMARE. My sleeve must have hit the cookie sheet that my cookies were on and they all went tumbling to the floor...and broke into little pieces. Only one dragonfly was salvaged. WOW. I wanted to cry. I think I did for a few seconds. Then just pulled out the mix master and made another batch of cookie dough, rolled out more dragonflies and started all over. You can imagine how devastated I was!!

Here is how they finally turned out. A lot of time and tears on my part!
Some butterflies....

Tulips with stems

More tulips.

Daisies

And the whole assortment together

Happy Baking!

Spring Cookies

Another Spring order. Like I said, the lady bugs have been popular this year! The bee was a new cookie for me to decorate. This first assortment was for a "bug" day at a children's school with the bees, ladybugs, butterflies and dragon flies.


BZZZZZZ.....


Hope you are enjoying the spring weather today! It is a nice one here in KC!

Spring is Here!

I've been done a bit of baking this week. Haven't been able to post some of it because they are for a surprise for a few people. But here is what I can show you.

I think Ladybugs are going to be quite a hit this year.....here is already another batch of them for a birthday party. And I have 2 more with them as well! I should be pretty good by the end of Spring, don't you think? Flowers to go with the ladybugs. I saw the combination of the ladybugs with these flowers on a blog....I thought they looked really nice together with the different colors and decided to try my hand at them. I wish I could remember which blog though! I'm not sure which one now and want to give them credit....dang it! Anyway, this is my version. Along with the ones I already I decided to add just one more design to this order. Fun dragonflies. My first time making them and they were fun to create. There are so many colors I could use. The hard part is actually deciding which colors and narrowing it down. The more colors, the longer it takes! And finally here are all the cookies together. A pretty good assortment if I do say so myself! I hope they enjoy them at the Birthday party!
