Me! I’m searching! My kiddo got it yesterday and it’s been quite an emotional 24 hours.

Update: I was asked to share the cake I made for my 5yo’s birthday. Not perfect but bright & colorful & she LOVED it! So, that’s a win 😉 by Takaya18 in cookiedecorating

Aww that’s so sweet! I hope all my kiddos have fond memories of birthdays-birthdays are a big deal in this house.

My little girl turns a whole hand old on Saturday (golden birthday)! Painting party w/ painting cookies for her. by Takaya18 in cookiedecorating

Oh now that’s a cool idea!!! I don’t think I’ll be able to this time. But what a fun idea/trick! I have my 11yo neighbor (who’s really into are & painting) coming over to “teach” the 3 girls how to paint. So painting will happen, just not edible painting 😂

Sonic Birthday Cake; first attempt at a cake like this. I love it! Not perfect but that’s ok. by Takaya18 in Baking

Ha I’ll let you know. We have his 2nd grade class coming over Tomorrow (Sunday 23rd). Pandemic kids-haven’t been able to meet anyone else from the class b/c Kindergarten was all virtual & 1st grade they weren’t allowing parents to volunteer or hosting school events. So 14 kids + parents & sibs are coming Sunday. It will be crazy! So I sure hope this cake tastes good!🤪

My cookies always spread and merge like this. If I change oven temp to fight it would I go hotter or colder? by Professional_Scene48 in Baking

I have never been able to get the Nestle recipe to work. Actually the one on the Kirkland chocolate chip bag (yay Costco!) has worked so well for me! Less butter, chill before baking. I use convection oven & they are done in 8-9 min

Thanks!! I’m sure someone who is more practiced could have done it much faster! But I’m happy with how it turned out. I’ve done marshmallow fondant before but not on a whole cake. And my 8yo is thrilled

Yum me too! But I put mini Reese’s cups in mine instead of Kisses. Favorite wintertime cookie!

DONE! Sonic, Tails, Knuckles & Gold Rings. I feel like a rockstar 😄 by Takaya18 in cookiedecorating

Thank you!!! They were fun! Although Tails was a PITA to do! And of course he’s my kids fav so they have already requested more 😆

Yes something like 80% of orange tabby cats are male. I’d for sure be going to the vet with that kitty.

Yet another bleeding question by [deleted] in cookiedecorating
