Christmas Mania!

25 dozen cookies made this Christmas season! Here are some of the designs made this season. Some Christmasy, others wintery... Then a special birthday treat for a 5 year old boy who got to play at Rexall Place during an Oiler's game intermission. So, I thought it fitting to do some hockey themed cookies for his day which he did have to spend at school! Wishing you all the very best and here's to a prosperous and healthy 2012.

Facebook winner...

when I hit 200 fans on my facebook page, I did a lil giveaway! The winner, Megan, claimed her prize to celebrate her 40th birthday this month with her friends! She wanted something bright... so I thought it would be a good chance to try things I don't normally try and to cut things out on the Cricut that I might not normally do! Alas... these colourful and whimsical designs were the results! Happy Birthday, Megan!

Whew... busy in the kitchen!!

What a busy time of year!  I have gone back to teaching full-time, and baking cookies... not to mention those other jobs that somehow don't get done on their own like raising 3 kids, laundry, dishes etc!  But... I LOVE IT ALL!  Ok.. so I don't love laundry or dishes but the rest is mighty fine!   In the midst of all the Christmas cookies, I got to make some birthday cookies!  Kept them simple, and I loved how they turned out!  It was for a 4 year old to take to his preschool class.  When you are dealing with 4 year olds, and preschool... you keep all the cookies the SAME!   I know the teacher would thank me! :-)  I did the same when baking a swack of our new Double Decker Mini's for school classes!!  Here are some pics of the latest creations this season!

 I love these Winter boxes I got for this Christmas season! So festive!

 MANY MINI's ready to go!!

 Birthday Boy Cookies!

 Winter flakes!

CHRISTMAS IS A COMING...

and you will want these at your table this festive season!   These cookies are my usual 3.5 inch square cookie with a layer of D-Lish fondant and decorated using D-Lish royal icing!   Classic in design and D-Lish in taste, you can not go wrong!

I had a phone call from a customer who had already ordered a few dozen for this upcoming season.   Then as she was pondering what to take in to the teachers at school for the staff room, she wondered if I could do a smaller version.. .a nibble.. just a tease!   So I came up with... DRUM ROLL PLEASE.....

THE DOUBLE DECKER MINI!   :-)   This is a 2 inch square tease of a D-Lish Cookie... but to make up for the lack in size, I doubled the thickness!   These are also available this holiday season by the dozen.    Shown here with the larger cookie to compare in size!
