It couldn't be helped. Ree needed a Wrangler cookie.
I wanted to bring Ree a few cookies, so I went through
her Flickr stream and picked out some images to print on frosting sheets. There were only a
few thousand that I wanted to print.
Yes, the color is off. Despite printing out a test page...on regular paper, my frosting sheet images were didn't look quite right. My guess is, in the 30 seconds between the test page and the frosting sheet, the yellow ink tank got clogged. And wouldn't you know that the day I was making cookies to bring to the
PIONEER WOMAN(!), I had no extra frosting sheets.
Curious about images printed on frosting sheets? KopyKake has a
listing of all of the printers compatible with food coloring ink cartridges. Be sure to use a NEW printer :). I have an Epson WorkForce 30.
Once you have the printer, ink and
frosting sheets, applying them is easy. Here is the set up....
Format, print and cut. Remove the images from the paper backing and place directly onto wet royal icing. As it dries, the image printed on the frosting sheet will "melt" into the icing.
For a border, I love using a #16 star tip. For these, I used Gold
AmeriColor
Food Coloring and when dry, brushed on a little
gold luster dust
. I was hoping the border would look like a little frame.
Did you know that Ree has a new book coming out? It's called
Black Heels to Tractor Wheels...and I'm thinking we need a book club....with wine, cheese and cookies! Who's in?
Along with those, I brought along a few cookies for the cookie class for examples.
There was sanding sugar....
And marbling....
And even a little disco dust
....
But, these....these were the ones I couldn't stop giggling over.
So much so, that as I headed into the airport on the way to Oklahoma, Mr. E shouted out, "No taking pictures of WRANGLERS!"
Cutie patootie! You're one talented lady.
ReplyDeleteYou are genius!!

Beautiful cookies. And I'm all about the book club. Especially the wine part!!

ReplyDeleteThose look amazing. I found your blog just yesterday after reading Ree's post. I love all your cookies and have your site added to my favs:-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a thoughtful idea.
ReplyDeleteAll of the cookies are wonderful but I think you may have just started a new trend in decorating with MM's Tooshie Cookie! I'm sure PW and her family got a huge kick out of it. If there is a Cookie Hall of Fame, this one get my vote for induction:)
ReplyDeleteWait, did I mention you are awesome? Oh, right I did, in my other comment. But maybe it needs one more saying. You are awesome!!
ReplyDeleteI laughed out loud when I saw that first cookie!! SO fun :)
ReplyDeleteLove the cookies! I'm inspired to get out my piping bags and make some fancy christmas cookies :)

ReplyDeleteLOVE the cookies Bridget! You are so incredibly talented. I am sure it was an incredibly fun weekend.
ReplyDeleteyou are so very talented & creative!
ReplyDeletedid you bake any charlie cookies…i love that guy too!!!
TOO fun!
ReplyDeleteI have the printer in my garage, (still in the box and unopened) and all the edible ink cartriges from Kopy Kake, (I hope they don't go bad on me for $75!) are in a drawer in my kitchen... But I am still too intimidated to try.
Will you come to my ranch to teach me?
Pretty please!?
Hehehe. I love them, and I'm sure Ree did too. Still so excited for you.
ReplyDeleteI just cracked up when I saw that first cookie! She must have LOVED the cookies! :) I'm "in" for the book club!
ReplyDeleteThese are just cute as can be! I bet she loved em!
ReplyDeleteBWAHAHAHAHAAA... I love that your husband banned you from taking pictures of Wranglers!!! LOL! Thats something my bf would say.
ReplyDeleteI baked some of your almond vanilla sugar cookies yesterday and we are icing them today! So excited!
those are all absolutely amazing! And a book club sounds amazing, I cannot wait for this book! (the wine and cheese are pretty good too :D )
ReplyDeleteWow those are all gorgeous! Where did you get the candy shaped cookie cutter? I've looked and can't find one and your blog has made me want one! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Janet
Love ALL of the cookies! You did such a fabulous job-like always!
ReplyDeleteholy cow!
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented and creative! Love it! I don't know how you do it. I spent three days in the kitchen making, decorating, packaging snowflake sugar cookies for my sons school Winter concert.
ReplyDeleteAfter the second day I kept asking myself why did I start this.
Wow, absolutely beautiful! I need to get frosting paper right now.
ReplyDeleteHave to say that I'm a little bit embarrassed about the amount of time I have spent drooling over your cookies over the past couple of days! Just lovely and darling. Firing up my oven as we speak....!
ReplyDeleteCount me in for the book club and cookies! Why wait for the book to be published, let's start "practicing" early!
ReplyDeleteThose are so fun! And sooo pretty! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThere could be no better homage to Pioneer Woman! I love the blue tint to the cookies; I think they're beautiful. Your cookies are always amazing, though.
ReplyDeleteHow do you do this disco dust? Brush it on with vodka and dust admixed or mix it into royal icing?
ReplyDeletei love them!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the peppermint candies. So clever! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are positively the coolest!! You are so amazing :)
ReplyDeleteYour cookies are amazing!
ReplyDeleteNice tooshie pic ;)
ReplyDeleteClever idea. I pre-ordered the book on Amazon and am glad to know there are other PW fans in this part of the state.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous decorating! Love the prints on the cookies, but the candy wrapper ones stole my heart.
ReplyDeleteHi! Sorry for being so totally random, but what's the font that you used in the photos, for 'disco dust' and 'marbling' etc? Thanks! :)
