FYI

Last weekend, I put edible images on cookies with a simple powdered sugar and milk glaze. We had great success with it...the image melded nicely with the glaze. I'm not sure if I completely got the edges down in the icing, but it didn't really matter b/c we put a border on it anyway. Please see in my pics (60th b-day cookies)

Previously, I had used images on mmf, either with a misting of water or using the condensation on the cookies (since they had been frozen-see logo cookies in my pics). I definitely prefer the icing method. If you put the images on the cookies when they are too wet, the ink will smear and you will get bubbles. I don't think I had one bubble with the icing. Anyway, if you must use mmf (my weapon of choice, actually), make sure it is not too wet.

I hope this all made sense! Just my thoughts...
