Fifties Themed Cookies


Fifties theme for a Sweet Sixteen

Vanilla sugar cookies with vanilla royal icing. The poodles were royal icing transfers.

Graduation Cookies - royal icing transfers


These cookies were made for my nephew who successfully defended his PhD. The grad cookies were to celebrate the "Doctor" in him and the Batman minis were for the KID in him - never too old for Batman!
As I usual, I used Sweet Sugarbelle's sugar cookie recipe and her royal icing recipe. For the cookies I always use good quality vanilla extract and vanilla bean paste (unless another flavor is requested) and for the royal icing I use clear artificial vanilla flavoring.
