Synergistic Cookies

I love the way these Brush Embroidery Cookies look together in a group, as if they were all pieces cut from the same bolt of fabric. This lavender bunch was a custom order for a wedding.

These are just some new photos of my Royal Crown Cookies.

Cookie Blues

This particular shade has become my new favorite color. Although it looks more like cornflower blue, Wilton's gel paste food coloring in delphinium blue works perfectly for these Cookies Inspired by Wedgwood.

Cameo Cookie

These are just some new photos of an old favorite: the Cameo Cookie.

Custom Cookies

I made these custom cookies for an artist in California. They were a lot of fun to decorate because of the simple lines and bright colors. You can see her art on her Website, http://www.axelhoney.com/ .

Look for my cookies in Taste Budd's Cafe in Red Hook, NY this spring!

A Christmas Cookie.

I made these cookies as a gift for the people at Mohonk, a resort and nature preserve in New Paltz, New York.

To make the logo, I first drew it on AutoCad, which is an architectural design program that I use at work. I then printed a bunch on one piece of paper and placed it underneath a sheet of acetate paper, which was taped onto a cookie sheet. From there I piped over the template with royal icing, painted the designs with luster dust, waited for them to dry, and carefully lifted them off the acetate using a small offset spatula.

I applied the logos to the cookies when the green icing was still wet.

Wedgwood Cookies

I received a great gift yesterday from my Grandmother, Jewel. She gave me an Olympus E-520 camera and, as you can see from these pictures, the camera makes all the difference. I spent most of this morning taking pictures of cookies that I'd saved in hopes that I would someday get a hold of a camera that would do them justice.

This is my favorite picture.

These cookies were inspired by Wedgwood pottery, which I recently started collecting. It took some time to get the color just right.

I made some letters by hand (above) and also experimented with stencils (below).

You can see some other pictures that I took on my mom's blog, Spiegel House.
