Baby Shower Goodies
My friend Shannon requested cookies and a cake for a baby shower she was hosting. Here is what I came up with. The cake is a yellow sponge cake with lemon curd ( my favourite filling) and buttercream icing. I really didn't want to use fondant, but it was so humid that the butter in the icing was getting melty as I worked. Lesson number 1: One o'clock in the morning is not a good time to decorate cakes! Still need to work on lettering.....

These are gorgeous. Makes me want to fire up my new kitchenaid mixer.
But, I'm telling you. My mom did 3 and 4 tier wedding cakes in July in Mississippi and the heat wasn't much of an issue with working the icing. Maybe I need to send you her recipe because it was great in July even with our 98 degree heat and 90% humidity.
I need to get out some of my old cake pictures.
those cookies are beautiful! Where the heck does one get a buggie cookie cutter?
Hollie has a good question there.Gorgeous as always !
Rebecca, you should definitely put that machine to good use, I love mine and I'd LOVE a recipe tested in true heat/humidity.
Ebay as always!!!! although I am looking at a place in Richmond Hill, ON called Creative Cutters for some new ones.
Baby Center, Babies R Us, BabyAge...age are some of the good baby stores at CouponAlbum site.
These cookies look soft & scruptous. Did you make the icing yourself?
I am hosting a baby shower this Saturday and needed some ideas with decorating the baby bottle cookies. I found my cookie cutters at a local specialty bake shop.
