Happy Birthday Kiddo!

Birthdays are a special celebration, and it seem like kid's birthdays have drifted away from the traditional birthday cake.  Cupcakes are a biggie, and cookies are popular because they can take them home with them.  I don't do character cookies, but we can channel the idea of them . This is a sampling of some kid's celebration cookies.



I've posted these before, but really, what kid doesn't love a bowling party!?

These were for a family party, to use as favors.  They were a big large, but I love my custom sprinkles mix!  And the colors are so sweet.

These were for a one year old as well, but the theme was a little more girly!!

These were for a farm party.  Not a great picture, but this Iowa girl loved them.

 This 1st birthday was a snow theme. Not many people in Buffalo wanting a snow theme birthday I bet, but in the South....bring it on!

This grandma was hosting the party for the first birthday.  She asked for a lot of cookies...must have been a heck of a party! I like the tone on tone pinks.

Did you know the light saber's color means something?  I didn't,  but you can Google the specifics.  This little boy knoew exactly how many of each color he needed for his friends!

Basketball cookies are stunning when done.  It's that color contrast.  I have airbrushed the balls to give it the texture look, but I find it unnecessary.  Certain the 6th grade girls didn't notice!

I bought these cutters at a certain Kingdom.  They are small...so I did 2 cookies per bag for the 2 year olds.  Pretty cute!  I love that kids still love the mouse.

And the unicorns were made for someone at the Mouse party.  She loved the little favors, and I was excited to make sparkly unicorns!

Many more celebrations, we all have one a year, right!?  What are you waiting for?  Get in there and bake!

Sporting Cookies

Every now and again I get requests for sports themed cookies.  Golf, is my very favorite sport and I have done many along these lines!  They make great party favors for an outing and I whipped up the golf cart cookies in an afternoon for a birthday.  Looking forward to working on that golf cart again!

Putting is hard.

These will be fun to do again!

I made these for a PGA golfer while at the tournament.

Now this may not qualify as sport per se, but Pure Barre is my addiction.  I go about 5 times a week, until golf season comes along!

My PB buddy hit her 1,000th class.  I just hit 750, I've a ways to go!

500 classes is also a huge accomplishment.  

My Nashville friend called and asked for tennis cookies for her team heading to State.  No, not high school, this is league tennis.  These were apparently the good luck charm as they won the whole darn thing!

So a young man I know has distinct birthday ideas every year.  

For his 7th hockey in his favorite colors,  and below, the bowling balls for his 8th!

Swimming cookies are an easy one.  I like the graphic nature of these, and the black and gold is school colors.

Lastly, one of my friends who is the workout guru.  She trains folks, teaches classes, teaches food prep classes and is a grandma!  These, are hers.
