Adding sparkle to your 3D cookies!

I've never liked that the iced marshmallow on my 3D cookies doesn't have a perfect finish. It seems cloudy. The other night I hit upon a simple solution that I can't believe I didn't figure out sooner...once iced, roll the marshmallow in colored sanding sugar! Not only does it give a uniform finish, but the added sparkle gives the cookies even better "kid appeal"! So if you bought my kit and want to vamp up your cookies, try the sugar. (I'll try to post a picture of my sample cookies.)

OMG GeminiRJ,

I just love that idea. I will definetly use it when I start baking cookies next week.

I have your cookie cutter kit and it is the best and easy to use. I always get complements when I use it to make cookies.

I will send a PM with all the information concerning the kit. Adding the sanding sugar to the marshmallow was a "eureka" moment. So simple, too!

I think I've gotten in touch with everyone who wanted information on the cookie cutter kit. PM me if for some reason I missed you!

I sent in a photo and recipes for the cookies to our local paper, as they were asking for cookie ideas for the holidays. They're doing a "12 Days of Cookies" series. With luck, I'll be included!

I got a call from the newspaper last night, and my cookies will be highlighted in the Friday edition! I'm so-o-o excited! I just hope my responses to her questions weren't stupid...

Congrats GeminiRJ.

Post the link to the newspaper article when it comes out. Remember that "I told you so" and I am so happy to say that to you. I also said "I want to say I new her when".

Get ready for things to take off. Start getting your packaging ready because you should have a lot of orders before the holidays.

CONGRATS TO YOU. And I love, love , love my cookie cutter kit I got from you.
