Hi All-
Amy here with a timely idea first posted in 2014 but one I know you’ll simply eat up! Watch the video…
EDIBLE HALLOWEEN Craft using your CRAFT SUPPLIES in the KITCHEN!
Get out those stamps!
All you need is some Royal Icing (recipe below), gel food coloring, Embellie Gellie™ and Halloween Cookie Sugar Decors.
Embellie Gellie™ is safe for food and the easy way to place your confection decorations exactly where you want them…(just like you do in papercraft or nail art!)
These would be perfect for any Holiday theme, Thank You or Teacher Gift, class parties …
WHAT IDEAS DO YOU HAVE FOR STAMPED COOKIES?????
NOTES:
1. About the COOKIES: Typically, I bake cookies from scratch. Because I wanted to make the video quickly, I decided to buy them. I had trouble finding round, flat cookies about this size–until I was in Walmart. (Wouldn’t you know?) They look quite homemade — and according to my kids– they even taste really good. They cost under $2 per package. I used the bottom of the cookie so they’d be even flatter.
2. About the STAMPS: When I tried the pink rubber stamps on a thin dry layer of royal icing, I found I needed a much thicker layer to evenly coat the cookies and smooth the bumps and lumps. As it turned out, I found a set of inexpensive foam stamps and discovered they really flexed easily and worked super well. I am sure I could have eliminated the need for the extra royal icing!
3. **About ROYAL ICING: It’s so simple to make using powdered sugar and fresh or powdered egg whites and water. (My recipe: 1 tsp powdered egg whites, 1/2 cup confectioners sugar and water)
