Birthday Cake with Candles Decorated Cookie (Tutorial)

I'm sending a little birthday cake love via these cookies with wonky candles. :)
It happens to be my youngest daughter's birthday today, so this post is quite appropriate. 🎉

Using the cake/sand-castle cutter found in Sugarbelle's Shapeshifter's set, start off by outlining and flooding the bottom portion of the cookie with your choice of glaze color.
Keep it plain or add polka dots or stripes......it's your choice.

Allow it to dry for about two hours and then using the Shapeshifter's scalloped edger, press it into the "cake tier" from top to bottom to give it a wavy icing look.
(see video for placement)

Add sideways candles on the top portion of the cookie, including any polka-dots or stripes that you'd like to each candle. (I added 3 candles, but there's plenty of room to add more.)
Make a small wick above the candle and then add a flame.
For the set shown, I applied wet silver luster dust to the flames for a shiny silver color.

 

Brighten someone's birthday with these cute cake with candle cookies. 🎂 ❤️

Birthday Cake Slice Decorated Cookies (Tutorial)

Since birthday cookies are probably one of the most common cookies decorated, I always want to make a set from season to season to incorporate the latest things I've learned. I had an even deeper incentive in that LilaLoa's new cutters just became available, and I was anxious to try the new shapes out.

This is the LilaLoa cake slice cutter. 
When I decorated it, I didn't realize that the large hump at the top was supposed to be a candle flame. Oops. Oh well.....I made it my own by just making it be a huge dollop of icing. 

I wanted to add more dimension in these cookies, so I added a thin extra layer of dough to the icing part of the cake slice. (see photo below)

Once the cookies are baked and cool, outline and flood the top icing portion. Add any design you'd like to make it fancy.

Outline and flood the bottom cake portion with a plain-er color (in this case white). Allow it to dry for 15-20 minutes and then take a cake tester and make some horizontal cut lines down the side of the cake portion. (see photo below)

Add Icing color down the left side of the cake to make it complete.
