Red Heart COOKIES

red heart cookies went to an engagement ceremony…St Valentine’s is approaching…before Christmas and New Year, I had no good sleep…another ‘sleepless nights’ is nearby!

I LOVE YOU COOKIES FOR A COUPLE

I am being asked about the dantela effect on the sides of the cookies…I use crimpers to do that (mainly serrated ones as they give dots).


I usually buy ready-made fondant, because 1- it is ready, I have to put no eddort to it; 2- It is more delicious because they add chocolate scent (it gets the taste) 3- It is easier to work with, because it is soft by default but you can easily harden it (much simpler then trying to soften a hard piece) 4- You get no dry cracks

so why make your own??!

ANOTHER SET OF LADYBUG COOKIES

Happy Birthday Cookies for a boyfriend! A ladybug is lucky! Well at least for us. I am not a believer in such things, but love the fact that this pretty and colored bug represents goood things.


Ladybug, Ladybug, fly away home….your house is on fire, and your children will burn. Except
little Nan, who sits in a pan, weaving gold laces as fast as she can!

I am sure you know the song, we have a similar version also in Turkish, more concerned about rhyme, then the meaning of the song. However, we need to sing this song, if a ladybird comes to us or lands on our finger…this would mean, what we wished for at that moment will come true.

We all know storks brought us to the world;

in Switzerland, it is not storks but ladybirds.
I believe no other bug would be the topic of a cookie decoration anyway…maybe the butterfly and dragonfly!

Have a nice and lucky day!!

I LOVE YOU COOKIES

to my husband, with love!
