Wedding Cake Shaped Cookies
If you can believe it, I wasn't able to find a wedding cake shaped cookie cutter anywhere in San Antonio! I made a template and hand cut all of the cookies. They are very large (6 inches tall). I used Duff's technique for the little flowers.
very nice. Great job on the cookies. ;-D
These cookies are beautiful and they must have taken you a long time to make. Could you explain Duff's technique for the flowers? Thanks.
Wow! these are beautiful. Especially love the lace bit on the second tier/
these are really elegant and beautiful... great job!
Sure, Duff cut out 3 circles and laid them partially on each other in a straight line (like a fan of cards but in a straight line). He had a brush with piping gel on it and ran a line down the length of the 3 circles in the middle. He then just rolled up the disks and fanned out the edges a little and cut the extra off. I found if you are careful you can save both ends and have two flowers. I want to try it with more than 3 circles. I hope I made this plain. You can see how the top layer of the cookie.
These are so beautiful!
are they covered in fondant or royal? I take it that the flower technique you were desribing is fondant also?
Duff's technique
They are covered with fondant and yes the flower technique is what I was describing.
Thanks for your explanation - it was very clear and I'll give it a try soon.
These are great, I couldn't find wedding cake cookie cutters in S.A. either, I ended up ordering mine from the internet!
