Managed to squeeze in some Easter cookie decorating and I have a wee bit of an update.
I’ve had so many emails asking about the KopyKake drawing projector, I think it’s about time I put together a tutorial!
So, for all those who asked, just thought I’d let you know that I’m beginning to work on one. (Update: The tutorial is ready; you can find it HERE).
I’d like it to be detailed and comprehensive with lots of visuals, showing a step by step how to use the “ever-so-pretty” contraption. *
For now, here’s a little photo slide show of one of these Easter cookies I made using the KopyKake projector:
After letting the outline dry, I flooded the cookie with the same consistency royal icing.
And c’est tout! That’s all!
I decided to try two different ways of doing these cookies; one with a base of royal icing and one without.
Which do you like better?
Of course I had to do a few cookies with disco dust

If you’d like to try some of these cookies or others, you can find the recipes I used here:

Enjoy decorating and Hoppy Easter!

Hi Amy; disco dust is non-toxic and I’ve heard conflicting information about edibleness, which is why I’m in the process of finding out concrete info., not rumours. It sounds like it’s going to be good news – that it’s edible, but I’m waiting for FDA info. and will write a post as soon as I have the documentation.
Hi
I really like the decoration made on the cookies, I wonder if I can engrave the same cookies to suit my wedding celebration. Also I want to know where I can purchase these cookies and how long it will take to complete the order?
Hi there Merft,
I don’t do orders but if you click on the chocolate chip cookie on the right top of my blog, you’ll find cookie decorators who do!

thanks a lot @ marian:
I am having a problem with my icing colors bleeding into each other, what could be the problem? I am using royal icing, and it doesn’t seem to matter if I use thick or thin consistency, it still bleeds. Also, I do allow at least 12 hours of drying time in between colors. Can you help me? Thanks so much!
HI @ Tina:
There is a tutorial in my tutorial section about colors bleeding.
@ marian:
Hi Marian, I was wondering if you did hear from FDA about disco dust or not yet?
Thank you for the time you spend to make all the amazing tutorials and thank you for sharing your creativity with us..:)You are always an inspiration.
I love these. You do wonderful work. I was wondering if you would share the images you used.
