Brush Embroidered Heart Cookies

Sugar Cookies with Royal Icing - Brush Embroidered Flowers on Hearts


The flowers on these hearts were painted on with royal icing using a technique called "brushed embroidery".  It gives these cookies a classic and romantic feel.  Perfect for a wedding!

Bridal Shower Cookies - Hearts and Gowns

I had a request for wedding gown and flower heart cookies for a bridal shower.  Actually, I was sent a photo of these gorgeous cookies by The Sugar Tree.

I asked her if I could copy them and she sweetly agreed.  I made a few changes - the shape of the gown cutter is slightly different.  I chose to make just two flowers on the hearts.  I wanted to show more of one flower and balance it with less of a flower on the opposite side.

The tops of the gowns are covered in sanding sugar.  I really wish I had dropped that sugar pearl just below the lavender belt to cover up that little glob there.

The flowers on the hearts are brush embroidery.  I love doing that technique but still need practice, even after 25 of them for this order, they're still not exactly how I'd like them.  Pretty though.

Love this set!  Thanks to The Sugar Tree!

Valentine Cookie Bouquets

I decided to do something a little different for Valentine's Day.  Cookie Bouquets!

Sugar cookies, decorated with royal icing, sanding sugar and nonpareils, on sticks, in cute little tins.  I'm pleased with how they came out.

Here's "Sweet as a Cupcake".  The cupcake was inspired by Sugarbelle's.


This is "Soaring Heart".  I did a little brush embroidery on the wings.


Here we have "Hot Lips".

And last, but not least - "Daisy Love".

Each cookie pop is individually bagged and tied with curling ribbon.


They're available for purchase locally in Frederick, MD.  Interested in purchasing?  Hop on over to my website.  :)

Wedding Sugar Cookies

I've been busy making up sample cookie designs for weddings. I showed you one for a beach wedding.

Now for the rest. I wanted them to be clean. Classic. Neutral. Elegant.

Quilted hearts.  I'm unsure about the dots around the border (not just on these but on all of them).  The dots aren't exactly "clean".  I wonder if no border at all would be better.  Or the dots matching the background.  Hmmmm.

I also wonder if a plain square shape would be better.  No scallops.


My Maryland crab cookies.  I've made these so many times.  Never in white though.

I always have cratering on these guys.  So very annoying.


Paisley cookies.  I did these with a stencil and petal dust.

The bunting cookie is one of my favorites.

Brushed embroidery flowers.  So pretty.  Sooooo time consuming.  I've watched many videos on brush embroidery.  SweetAmbs has one, as well as AliBee.

The grey and white flowers were done with icing.  The black one is painted on with food coloring.  I prefer the ones in icing.  More texture and dimension.


Love birds.  Another one that I've made several times, but not in white and grey.  This is SweetP's design.


Now this one might be my very favorite.  I painted the roses with food coloring.  I love the shabby chic look.  This design was inspired by Arty McGoo and SweetAmbs.  Arty McGoo taught us how to paint "squiggle roses" at Cookie Con.  SweetAmbs has a video showing how to do it.

The painting was soooo fun.  It was hard to stop!


It's time to start planning spring and summer weddings.  I hope that some of these designs will make a few wedding appearances!

Initials in the Sand Sugar Cookies

I've been making sample wedding cookies lately.  This one because I was asked about cookies for a beach wedding. 

The inspiration was Montreal Confections.  She has a video on it here.  The foamy waves are done with brush embroidery.  Mine are a little thinner than MC's.  I think that next time I need to go a little heavier.

To make the beach cookies a little more weddingish, I decided to add the initials of the bride and groom into a heart carved into the sand.

I love how they came out!
