Tangled - Sweet Prodigy (Four Interwoven Triangles)
When I first created a royal icing "sketch" of this pattern, I immediately saw four interwoven triangles - a design that suits this pattern perfectly. I also love the three-dimensional detail that is created when the lines are layered upon each other.

The 'sweet Prodigy' Knot
This was one of the hardest things I've ever had to pipe. I love Celtic knots and have always wanted to recreate one with icing. (Technically, this is a series of hypotrochoids, not a Celtic knot.) The challenge with this was to make it look like each hypotrochoid was one continuous loop. In reality, each loop has numerous starts and stops, all of which start and end where a loop of another colour crosses over it. This was not too hard to accomplish at the outer portion. The challenge was the inner part where everything is compact and loops are three and four layers high. I first had to analyze on paper where starts and stops should occur. I then piped the pattern a couple of times before I got it right. It's not perfect but I did it and I can honestly say that once is good enough for me!

Canada 150 | Celebration Canada's 150Th Anniversary
This is a large sugar cookie decorated with royal icing. The logo was piped as a RI transfer. The piped colours are the same shade as the flood. I felt that the flooded icing looked a bit plain as is so I added lines in the same colour. I didn't want to make the piping lighter - or darker - as this would have given the appearance of stripes, which was not what I wanted. For me, the light reflecting off the piping adds just the right amount of contrast, and creates texture and depth while still allowing colour to be the dominant design feature.

Cookies For Mother's Day
These are cookies that I made a few months ago. They are made mainly with royal icing transfers added to sugar the sugar cookies. The bottom left cookie (with the lines) is the only cookie that has the icing piped directly onto the cookie, which was done entirely freehand. The “Mom” transfers have been painted with Rolkem silver.
