Today is the grand opening of the new baking supply store, Make It Sweet!
I had the chance to learn basic cookie decorating from the owner, Jennifer Bartos. She demonstrated how to roll her mother’s sugar cookie dough between parchment paper to an even thickness. The students mixed bright color gel into large bowls of frosting. Jennifer showed us how to draw borders and flood the cookies, adding a few flowers, dots, and designs. Then we got our cookie canvases to play with.
Make It Sweet is located at Burnet Rd/183 next to Pluckers. You can easily browse the store for all your edible projects. Check out the website for classes, they fill up quickly! If you stop in today (May 19) you can partake in the festivities with cookies decorating, fondant, and a cupcake sprinkle bar.
Here are the cookies I made!
And guess what the kids did with them…
What gorgeous cookies! I bet the kids just loved them! and you hated to bite into that fantastic painting on a cookie! c
Little Sister went nuts over them, well the frosting at least. She refuses to eat the cookie! It was good timing since I will be baking sugar cookie cutouts for Big Brother’s kinder class this Friday. Another post will cover that!
Great to meet you on Friday, Heather!
You too, I’ll have to check out your blog!
