more of my easter baking...

these are some of the chick ginger cookies I decorated earlier this week (rather than having a nap and catching up on some much needed sleep) I used a new icing that calls for liquid egg whites (pasturized) which I very much enjoyed using. It was easy to pipe and it smoothed out very nicely. I divided the recipe up so I only made 1/5 of it...which worked out perfectly. I tinted it yellow for the bodies, then added orange for the legs and mouths and finally I tinted it black for the small details.

this evening I decorated a batch of coffee sugar cookies with chocolate (I have yet to photograph them) and made a bunch of rabbit pops for C to take tomorrow to playgroup.

easter cookies...

seems I fell asleep while posting last night...that is what happens I guess when you have wireless internet and the laptop in bed :)
these are my easter cookies so far...I am really happy with the ones with the drawings (though I always see where I can improve it in the future) I found some retro easter photos online and since my drawing skills aren't the greatest I used a projector to help guide me. There are ones that I LOVE more than others. I really like the purple polkadot one.
Next week I am going to do some more butterfly ones for my co-worker's daughter. She is having a birthday so I thought I'd give her some as a gift.
