Along with everyday happenings keeping me occupied, wedding season is upon us! Hubby and I have been traveling quite a bit for wedding showers and weddings. I really enjoy this season, and it makes me reminiscence about my own wedding day just a couple of years ago.
I have had the pleasure to bake cookies for a couple of wedding showers. I have had a fun time searching and buying new cookie cutters for my orders. One of the cutest cookie cutters I found was from the Etsy store WhiskedAwayCutters. The designs are whimsical, unique, and just plain adorable.
These cookies were made for a Kate Spade inspired shower. If you know Kate Spade at all, you will know that she has polka dots on many of her clothing, accessories, and china. I used gray icing for the polka dots, and then covered the dots with silver luster dust. I applied wet luster dust to the dots, but can be applied when dry.
For the second shower, I went more of a traditional route. I used cookie cutters that came from a wedding pack, a layered cake and a dress. The shower colors and the bride's colors were lilac and silver. I decided to use traditional cream color and lilac.
The lilac colors are the same colors, but because of the light and a bit of filter. I like the traditional shapes as well as the creative and whimsical. It's always to try new cookie cutters, and to dream up new designs.
Stay Sweet!
