So much fun. Baked a choc cake in a clean, new terracotta pot and used the cake as the soil and iced with green for grass. Stuck in the cookies and viola! a cokie bouquet. Made it for a friend who is just out of hospital.
The rest of the batch was donated to the local kinder for their market day fundraiser. Am so in love with making NFSC now!! Thanks to CC members to keep raving about these cookies.

Shellylynn - NFSC is No Fail Sugar Cookies. Recipe and instructions are in the recipes folder. Don't worry, it is not a dumb question. I also had to ask what NFSC was because I kept seeing it in all the posts.

Such a cute idea w/ the cake in the pot! I'll have to try that next time. Your cookies look so cute, too. What did you use for icing?

I love how you did it with the cake in the pot! That's too cute. I've wanted to try it like that but I'm afraid it won't be able to hold my cookies upright... I guess I'll never know until I try.

They look great! And you can't beat having cookies AND cake to eat. LOL icon_lol.gif

Fantastic idea. Yours looks great. I am in love with cookie decorating too. I just started two weeks ago but that's all I can think about now. I'm actually making some today for more practice and so I can ship off my first cookie bouquet order.

mollielor - I used royal icing.

tayesmama - I baked a dense choc cake after i stuck the sticks into the cake, I iced the grass bits. When the royal icing hardened, it helped to support the cookie sticks.
