Mine grows COOKIES!!!
They are pretty simple to make, and might be some of my favorite cookies ever.
Just outline with royal icing...
Fill with thinned icing...
And add detail...
The name and year were added after the cookies dried over night with an AmeriColor Gourmet Writer food coloring pen. I wasn't sure I could get it all on the cookie in piped icing.
I also strongly recommend the AmeriColor Gourmet Writers over the other brands found at the grocery and craft stores. I've tried both and AmeriColor wins, hands down!
THIS is how I want to eat my veggies!
{With the exception of those homegrown tomatoes. Who wants to trade?}
Goodness, these are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHow cute!! I especially love the seed packets!! I totally agree about the Americolor markers..they are the way to go!!
ReplyDeleteSO PRETTY!
ReplyDeleteWhen our tomatoes are good and going, I'll let you know...you're welcome to come and get some!

ReplyDeleteThese are too cute!!
ReplyDeleteSorry, that deleted comment was me - I was signed into my hubby's google account.
LOVE THESE!! I could actually pretend I eat healthy! ;)
ReplyDeleteYour peas are perfection.
Tomatoes terrific.
Carrots culinary masterpieces!
:)
This would be the BEST garden!
ReplyDeleteThey are so adorable! It *almost* makes me want to bake some today.
ReplyDeleteAnd when I say almost I mean I'm too lazy.
Bridget..these are so adorable!! The seed packs are just too cute and I love the little tomatoes! too cute!!
ReplyDeleteI agree about preferring cookies veggies over the real thing...except, like you said, the tomatoes...because nothing beats a really great home grown tomato!
ReplyDeletelove them! Always love to see what you'll come up with next! Always fabulous!

absolutley adorable! this is one way to get my boys to eat their veggies!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful personalized gift Bridget. I'm sure your sister's father-in-law will be deeply touched by your thoughtfulness. I love the little seed packs with the tomatoe! It is so tiny and sweet. Super job.
ReplyDeleteThese are soooooooooooo cute!!!
ReplyDeleteThese sure do look better than what came out of our garden last summer, huh? (or last week: carrots) :)
ReplyDeleteSO fabulous! I'll be sure to post a link on ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com I heart those writers, too! I promote Americolor so much you'd think I owned the company...(I don't)
ReplyDeleteBridget! Those are just amazing! How cute that would be for a garden party! I can see it now little clay pots for place cards, those seed packet cookies on a stick sticking out of the pots with peoples names on it. Ahhh! So cute!
ReplyDeleteI love your COOKIES, Bridget! I'm in love with that chubby carrot (Melissa owns that cutter, too)... And you are right, Americolor Pens rule!!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!! I love the little seed packets. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou make the most adorable cookies!
ReplyDeleteIf you make cookies to look like veggies...does that make them healthty? :) If so I'm all for it! Yum. They look marvelous.
ReplyDeleteI Love everything you do but these just might be my favorite, especially the little peas, how adorable! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to grow a veggie garden this year with my black thumb, maybe I should just try and grow some cookies too! They're way cuter.
Those are so cute!!! You are one talented cookie decorator!
ReplyDeleteJust when I think your cookies can't get any cuter, you come up with THESE!! Adorable! I love them!
ReplyDeleteXOOX

So cute! These are the only kind of peas Ill ever be eating!
ReplyDeleteI would take these veggies over the real thing ANY day! Sooo cute and I'll bet they taste good too.
ReplyDeleteI would be curious to know how long this process takes...making dough, cutting/baking cookies,making the frosting (lining and filling),coloring the frosting, actual frosting process - outline,fill,detail and drying steps. Care to do some sort of post on that?? In steps/phases with time?? You make it seem so easy but I would love to know the reality of it.
How adorable!! I wish my garden grew some of those :D
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea. They are so cute! Thanks for the tip on the writing pens; I have tried others with disappointment.
ReplyDeleteSo cute. Love the seed packets. Where did you get your pea pod cookie cutter? I've been looking for one like that for a baby shower. I've found other designs but I really want to try your cookies with the little baby face in place of one of the peas.
ReplyDeleteThose are too cute B~ I love that you put his name and birth year ~you are so creative ;)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I need to keep this in mind for the next gardening class my husband has - they would love these! Well done (as usual)!
ReplyDeleteGirl, your cookies are on fire! (In a good way.) Lydia at Drop In & Decorate suggested I check you out since I'm in Texas too. I'm hosting a party in May and can't wait!
ReplyDeleteJust awesome! Love the Veggie cookies! I would definitely eat my veggies looking liked this!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the seed packets Bridget! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI love 'em!! What a unique idea for cookies, fo sho!

So perfect! I could live off of veggies and baked goods, so these cookies are right up my alley! You did an amazing job on them! Yum!
ReplyDeleteI will have an abundance of tomatoes and other veggies in a few months and would love to trade for cookies! LOL
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable!
Oh my gosh, these cookies are adorable! Love the touch of his name and birth year!
ReplyDeleteBridget, I am flat out stealing these ideas for our upcoming Drop In & Decorate event! Especially the peas -- we love the lips cookie cutter, and for all of the creative things I've seen people do with it, I've never seen peas and a pod.
ReplyDeleteOMG, LOOOOOOOOOVE these! I definitely have to try these some time!
ReplyDeleteSo unique and adorable! Love making cookies that suit the receiver and the occasion. My next project is Poke-ball cookies for a Pokemon card tournament that my son is going to at church.
ReplyDeletethose are so cool!
ReplyDeleteYour cookies are so beautiful. My college daughter loves to make sugar cookies. She and I are planning a cookie decorating session when she comes home in a few weeks for the summer. I want to go back and re-read some of your tutorials. I want to try your icing techniques. I have always loved the smooth surface that your icing has. Love & blessings from NC!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THESE!!! If I made them I know I would never again be able to say I have a tough time getting my kids to eat their veggies!!!
ReplyDeleteWow!
Great design!!!
Oh my, these are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe cookies are so cute.
ReplyDeleteGreat job.

Or a summer family picnic where you could tell children to "always eat your veggies"!! LOL!
Those cookies are super cute!

ReplyDeleteYou make it sound so simple! Yet they are works of art. Yummy ones too!

ReplyDeleteThese are just beautiful. But what I want to know, is where are the weeds?! That's what is predominant in my garden right now!!
ReplyDeleteThose tomatoes are the best! These would be a great garden party treat! : )
ReplyDeleteA very stylistic way of writing, creating effects especially in language and literature.
