Happy Valentine's Day Everyone! Yes, as you can tell, I am still having fun decorating cookies. I used a few of my Heart cookie cutters for this post, and one rectangular cutter for a true Valentine envelope. I have been trying to improve my piping skills of late, and decided to try out some new techniques that I picked up on-line with these Valentine's Day cookies. Although I have a way to go, it was fun and I am pretty happy with the results. It seems the more cookies I make, the more ideas that come to mind. It was fun to give away some yummy Valentines this year. And, I am glad that my husband is a true "Cookie Monster!" He doesn't seem to mind eating up the results.
Yes, the focus was on piping...
Don't look too close!
This is my favorite! I discovered that the icing has to be perfect to flow correctly and I need to stay focused! The rose is piped with a small petal tip.
I hope that all you have a romantic Valentine's Day, full of love!
Those are beautiful cookies! They look so delicate. I like the light pink with the crossed piping. It looks like a puffed-up pillow.
