NeckTie & BowTie Cookies (Tutorial)






Recently I did a "Little Man" Baby Boy Shower cookie collection.
There were several new cutters that I wanted to experiment with.

First I did mustache cookies.

To add to the fun "manly" collection, I added ties.

Here's some of my favorite cutters from this collection:

Bow Tie Cutters from Cheap Cookie Cutters (3 sizes)
5" Bow Tie Cutter from Cheap Cheep Cookie Cutters
5" Neck Tie Cookie Cutter from Cheap Cheep Cookie Cutters
Mini Neck Tie Cookie Cutter from Copper Gifts



Generally, if there is a part of the cookie that I want to stand out more,
I will pipe it last and try to add extra glaze to it for a more "puffy" look.
In the case of the bow ties and neck ties,
I saved the "knotted" part for last to give it more dimension.

Outline and flood the bottom part of the neck ties and the outer part of the bow ties.



Add patterns as desired.
All of the patterns below were done wet-on-wet (pipe details onto wet glaze).


Allow the ties to dry for a couple of hours (or just one hour in food dehydrator on low)
and then use a long thin tool like a cake tester to add some folds to the ties.


Outline and flood the knotted parts of the ties and include any patterns used on the knot.



Fairly simple......super cute. :)
