Summer Treats


 What's better than delicious summer foods? Sugar cookies disguised as summer foods of course!


 Watermelon anyone?


OK, so these swirls aren't summer foods, but they sure are fun to eat!

New Kid on the Block Baby Girl Cookies

These cookies were made for the members of a tightly knit neighbourhood who wanted to congratulate another neighbour on their new bundle of joy.

The neighbours had a really cute ideas, and requested that the bouquet be centered around this cookie, and the new kid on the (baby) block theme.
This bouquet was a bit different from any other Decorated Delectables bouquet. It was a bouquet/platter combination that included some chocolate chip cookies on the bottom for the new mom. Similar customization requests can be sent to Nicole at decorateddelectables.@gmail.com

Accessory Party Cookies

These cookies were made for the hostess of an accessory party, and showcased everything girly and fun. 

Someone needed to model the jewellery, and these icing motifs did a great job!

 
Interested in seeing your own profile made out of icing? I was. This icing motif was actually created using a picture of my own profile.

These looked great as a collection - everything stylish all rolled into one!


No girl can ever have enough shoes - the same applies to heels made of cookies.

Apparently diamonds are a girl's best friends! The diamonds on these rings were so sparkly and fun to make that they ended up being featured in a few other cookie designs as well.

A little bit of edible luster dust makes icing jewels pop!

Sometimes creative mistakes have great outcomes. The original plan for these daisy shaped cookies was to ice them to look like bead bracelets.When the first one didn't turn out quite as planned, I improvised a little and came up with this design. The necklaces on these cookies were inspired by some of the ones available at the accessory party.

Crown cookies are a recent addition to the Decorated Delectables line up and I had a great time coming up with new designs and creating the crown jewels! I can't wait to make these for a little princess!

Sometimes when making cookies you need to look outside the box, or in this case the cutter. Easter basket cookie cutters make great little purses! Chanel anyone?

For All the Tough Jobs

These tool cookies were actually made for a lucky dad on father's day, but they really work great for any occasion. My father seems to get suspicious whenever I make these cookies. I think he's slightly jealous and wants some for himself!

Thin shapes and stick are not a good combination, so these cookies can't be made into a bouquet very easily, but they sure do make a nice arrangement!
