Spring Cookies – Caterpillars, Butterflies & Bees
I know, butterfly cookies, again. I made them quite a while ago though… To combat the snow we just received this week (I know it’s the last of it!!), I wanted to post some spring happiness. These little critters are sugar cookies decorated with royal icing. Originally flickr user Sweet Pudgy Panda was inspired by my butterfly cookies, and I in turn was inspired by hers.

I used the royal icing recipe from Peggy Porschen’s book, Pretty Party Cakes
Happy Easter to you!

[...] Da mich Kälte und Tristesse immer noch Möhre-Ingwersuppe kochen machen, war mir auch nicht nach quietschfidelen Limetten-Keksen. Stattdessen flößte ich Butterplätzchen mit Zitronensaft und -schale einen angemessen zarten Frühlingshauch ein und dekorierte in zurückhaltendem schwarzweiss. Die von Stil- und Farbberatern gerne als Frühlingsfarben titulierten Pastelltöne liegen mir allgemein nicht so sehr, schon gar nicht auf Keksen. [...]
