More Time for Tea Decorated Cookie Sets





I couldn't resist making a few more sets of tea cookies.

Wanting each set to be distinct, I chose bold colors and patterns for the red, black, and yellow set.....
and more muted and softer patterns and colors for the mint and peach set.

For the entire cutter collection, check out the CookieCrazie page on That's a Nice Cookie Cutter.

Doily, Napkin, and Sugar Cube Decorated Cookies (Tutorial)






In case you can't tell.....we're planning a tea party....... for Mom. :)

So we're going to need some doilies, napkins and sugar cubes.......cookies that is!


Here's the sugar cube cutter.
(There's several more cutters from the Time for Tea set on That's a Nice Cookie Cutter.)


For doilies, use a large flower shape with plenty of petals (like these).
Before baking the cookies, use a circle cutter to partially cut a circle in the middle.
(Don't press too hard or you'll have a donut shape. ;))

Outline and flood the center of the doily with white glaze.
(Ignore the fact that I outlined the outer part and filled it with translucent glaze.
It didn't work as well as I thought it would....and thus is unnecessary.)




Next, outline the outer portion, plus outline small circles in each of the "petals".
Flood all of the outer portion except for the insides of the small circles.
(see photo below)


Allow the glaze to dry for about 2 hours.
Using a cake tester, poke lots of holes all around the edges to make it look like lace.



For the napkins, cut square cookies and then cut them diagonally to have two triangles.
Bake and cool as usual.
Outline and flood them in your choice of colors.


Allow them to dry for 4-5 hours (depending upon how big they are),
and then press silicone texture mats into the partially dried glaze.
For the napkins pictured here, I used this mat and this mat.


For the sugar cubes, use this cutter.

Outline and flood the three portions of the cube in white glaze as shown below
(keeping each portion from touching).

Cover the wet glaze with white sanding sugar and shake off the excess.
(I love using a tray like this to make the job much neater.)



I can smell the tea brewing already...... :)
