For Administrative Professionals day, I decided to make favors for the annual APD luncheon at work. Why I chose this design is beyond me. The daisy is so time consuming to decorate in my opinion. My goal was to have three daisies per bag. I baked enough cookies, but when it came time to decorate, the icing would not cooperate and I remembered what a pain in the butt it was to decorate a daisy.....so I ended up with one cookie per bag....and the rest of the cookies went in the trash.
I experimented with lemon extract again and think I figured out the correct measurements for both dough and icing.

Super cute favor bags...

Last week I worked on an order for 6 dozen graduation cookies. These are some of my favorite cookies to decorate!!!!!
Two dozen caps, two dozen diplomas.

All the diplomas were personalized with UNF.

And two dozen Ospreys.
Here are some step-by-step shots of the cap and diploma.
Stay tuned....next up....tulips for Mother's Day.
