I will have to get back to you on the cupcake recipe.

I made these cupcake cookies for a charity fair using your templates and it sold out in less than half an hour, all the kids were ogling them before the event even started, ha ha, it sure was a crowd pleaser.
I followed your design for the pink and brown cupcake but changed the blue and brown one, I used a white and blue design instead and bordered the white cupcake with a yellow cloud-like border.
This was my first time icing anything and each big cookie took me 2 hours, whew! The borders were very shaky, any advice on that?
I also made some cupcakes using Betty Crocker’s Supermoist Chocolate cake mix but the cupcakes didn’t have the beautifully rounded dome like yours, it kind of looked like a steep-hill mountain and the sides shrunk in, it looked like a moat surrounding the mountain, yuck! Can you give me a recipe that has a rounded dome like the perfect ones you make? It will be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!!!

Scalbob: Thank you. For your request on a tiger cake have you tried Goggle image “tiger cake”? you could be lucky to find some insperation.

But just wanted to ask all of you out there – has anyone made or seen a tiger cake? My son has requested a “ra ra” for his 2nd birthday and I am looking for ideas.

Thank You!

I am glad that you like my blog and the cookie templates Sometimes templates must be the way if you cant find cutters ect.

Btw I know it is a bit late, but did you know that FMM have a tappit set with a small guitar? http://www.fmmsugarcraft.com/pages/fullprod.php?id=48 Still I like when people makes the decoration all by them self (more personal) but sometimes short cuts is the way.

For your question on how to get more comments I must say I really dont know. Thats the thing with blogging you never know if it will hit or fail. I just write….:-)

Have a nice day!

I m a fan of your blog, I wrote you by Flickr mail, asking you some questions that you have just answered, thanks ,

I made your cookies (are in my postream) with the template and the are beautiful for me, never as yours, of course!!! the edges came out rough… i now have the trick to smooth it with my finger.

Ill be waiting for the tutorial and the recipe for the icing, because it didnt turned so perfect as yours.

Las delicias de vivir

Kelsie: Thx. Your cookies are cute too.

I’ve been reading your blog for a while now; you’re a really good cake decorator!

I cut out the cookies with a small sharp knife. I find it best to cut while the cookies dough is still cold and NOT baked. If there are any rough edges I carefully smoothe with my finger.

After the cookies is cut I take a lolly stick and twist it into the cookie. carefully turn the cookie over and cover up with some dough. This fab trick can be seen on Karens Cookies:http://www.karenscookies.net/shop/cookie-projects-baking-cookie-pops/info_46.html

When I do the flooding I make sure that it is a thin and runny icing and I use one of those brilliant squeze bottles. The icing set up more even and smooth by doing it this way. I thin down with water.

Whenever you do the out lining of the cookie or the details when the flooding icing is dry I use a soft icing.

Yes it would be great if I could get this one into a real cookie cutter!!!

Thanks to all of you for the comments. I thought that you would love them

a)do you cut the cookies post- or pre- baking?
b)how doyou stick the sticks in the cookies? Bake them in? Stick them in afterwards? How do you stop the cookie from splitting/breaking around the stick?

I Just didn’t uderstand, cause you said you sat and draw the cutter ??
