Fashion Cookie workshop

“I really want to stay a couple more hours….I’m having such fun!” was one of the many comments I heard at Friday’s designer cookie class. I always love teaching cookie classes as everyone always enjoys themselves and students are often amazed at what they can create.

Many, but not all, of Friday’s students were new to sugarcraft so I was surprised but delighted that they all managed to decorate well above the class average of 5 decorated cookies. They were also very keen to take the extra cookies home to practice with – I’m expecting great things…..!!!

As you can see, I introduced the students to range of techniques including stencilling and embossing and gave them a selection of fashion cookies to experiment with.

Here are some of my demonstration cookies. I just love the new mehndi stencil I used on the shopping bag  and the embosser on the pink shoe is an old favourite.

    Hi Lindy,

    Adding my thanks to you for a wonderful day on Friday. Thoroughly enjoyed learning new skills and meeting a lovely group of equally enthusiastic ‘students’. The day flew by but it was worth all the effort to come from Dublin. I already have an order for 50 dresses!!!

    Wow Grainne well done. I hope your flight back was good. I ordered some cutters and embossers yesterday which arrived today. Thank you for the swift delivery! I am looking forward to making some more shoes at the weekend and also the balloons on sticks for my daughters birthday.

    Tip for the balloon cookies: you’ll need the cookie dough slightly thicker than 5mm, so that when you insert the sticks they go completely into the cookies. Have fun!

    Bravo on fantastic cookie fashions. Your students are very talented. I will have to feature them on a future blog post.
