462. Sugar Cookies decorated with royal icing is an art. I am amazed when I watch experienced bakers apply royal icing with finesse and skill to handmade sugar cookies. And their cookie decorations are phenomenally beautiful.
Now, baking is a joy of mine and this was a great challenge to tackle. At Christmas I have made decorated sugar cookies but the cookies I would need to make were Winnie the Pooh themed. We looked on-line and locally but the cost was astronomical. So...this became my task to create Pooh cookies and challenge myself to a new level.
I researched so many pictures, cookie ideas and sites to gain a perspective and plan. Here is my pictorial process.
I loved these piping bags and rubber loops that secured the bags so very well.
There were so many great tutorials on-line with step-by-step processes and suggestions. If you google or search on YouTube or Instagram it is incredible how many great bakers and artisans are lending their creativity and advise.
Several products that were suggested include Pooh Cookie Cutters; Ann Clark Bright White Food Coloring Gel; Judee's Complete Meringue Powder Mix; LorAnn Butter Vanilla Bakery Emulsion; 122 Pieces Tipless Piping Bags;3pcs Black Food Coloring Markers (edible) and of course, powder sugar and food coloring.
Cost-wise, this may have spent my time but not my wallet. And, the fulfillment of the finished product is priceless.
