Princess Tea Party

From the jewels to the shoes and the tiaras and the dress, every young girl dreams of being a little princess.  And of course along with being a princess comes the ever-enchanting princess tea party. This tea party was for a special little girl who has been dreaming of having a tea party for her birthday with everything in pink and purple (her favorite colors). 

Happy Diwali!

Diwali is the festival of lights and celebrates the triumph of good over evil.   Diwali also celebrates a new year which is a time for many people in Indian and throughout the world to start new endeavors, and make their homes neat and clean to welcome luck and good fortune during Diwali.  During this season of festivities, many people throw Diwali parties and exchange gifts and sweets.

A friend of mine just bought a new place and she hosted a "Welcome Home" Diwali party.  These diwali cookie favors celebrate the bright and vibrant colors of Diwali and they are decorated with a gold "Om", the utmost sacred symbol in Hinduism.

Here are the cookies with only the first layer of icing.

The Om is hand-written and 'painted" with gold luster dust.

Breast Cancer Awareness

These didn't come as great as I wanted, but still a lot of love went into these cookies.  I think everyone has their own way of supporting breast cancer awareness and this is my way of showing I care. 

 All proceeds from the pink ribbon cookies will be donated to the:
 Susan G. Komen for the Cure Breast Cancer Foundation.

graduation

Another graduation platter for a high school senior planning to attend George Washington University. The colors were blue and buff (which I had to look up on the Internet).

Graduation - Music

I designed these cookies for a set of twins graduating from high school. Both had a passion for music - one played the electric guitar and the other brother played the drums, so I came up with this cookie platter for their graduation party. Their school colors were burgundy and gold.

surf boards

Nothing says summertime like a trip to the beach! These surf boards were for a summertime beach-themed birthday party.

Winnie the Pooh

Growing up, I was always a big Disney fan and am still a huge Disney fan 'til this day!  I remember watching the "Winnie the Pooh" movie over and over again.  Next to Mickey Mouse, Pooh was always one of the cutest characters.  So when one of my friends asked me to make these Pooh cookies for her son's birthday party, I was so excited! 

Eat, Pray, Love!

These cookies were inspired by the movie "Eat Pray Love".  I never really read the book, but after seeing the movie, I am motivated to go and read the book!
