A bubbling cauldron of Halloween brew! |
I'm gone a lot for October, actually right now I'm in Oregon recruiting on college campuses. But, before I left I decorated some Halloween cookies. The cookies were a spiced sugar cookie and I added maple flavoring to the royal icing.
What do witches put in their potions? Eye of newt, shining stars... |
There are several things I need to work on. I forgot to use the smoother when the cookies came out of the oven. I can't believe what a difference it makes using it. I consoled myself with the bumpy texture of the cauldrons with the fact that cauldrons are usually bumpy from all the use they get. I am still working on the right consistency for royal icing and I really need to work on keeping air bubbles out of the frosting. Every green bubble had an air bubble and dried with a little hole, so I'll have to figure that one out.
First layer of bubbles |
I did one layer on each pan then added the second layer of bubbles. |
But, overall I thought they were cute and very Halloweeny! I get home on the 27th, just in time to buy candy for the trick or treaters at our house.
Three layers of bubbles and then the extra ingredients. |
