First Cookies of the New Year 2013!

January 8, 2013 | Filed Under Cookies

Mischief Mari of Cha no ma-ri has always inspired with me with her cookie-decorating skills.

I never thought I could be capable of decorating my own cookies until I’d read her recently-released book:

It’s a really fun, inspiring and easy-to-read book.

So, for the New Year, I set out to bake and decorate some cookies!

I made sugar cookies from a recipe in Mari’s book.

I made Royal Icing.

I had fun choosing my icing colors.

Then I set out decorate.

Of course, I need a lot of practice, but I‘ve just begun.

Let’s see what type of decorated cookies I’ll make during this new year.

I hope to get better and better!

Paz

Was that a midnight decoration session? I am no expert, but it seems to me that you did pretty well with that batch.
