I was honored and pleased as punch (yes, I did say pleased as punch), to be invited by Bridget to be a “professor” there. If you haven’t seen U of C, It’s full of all kinds of super cookie decorating tips from other U of C professors; I recommend you check them out here!

Marian, thank you so much! You are an awesome teacher. Your ideas have helped me in the past and I just refreshed today before decorating cookies for my daughter’s shower. I’m looking for decorating ideas for wedding dress and cake cutouts. Also doing some hearts, some larger for wedding dress too and smaller ones that are plain.
I want to thank you so much for your blog. I have so many cookie cutters and only from your blog is that I think I’m ready to start baking and decorating. My son and his wife are going to have a August baby and I want to make cookies for baby shower. My other 2 kids are getting married this year so oh my gosh it’s going to be busy. Can I say thank you again.

Wonderful Annie! I’m so glad to hear it!
I would love to see tie dyed icing tricks and what the consistency would be.
Thanks
Dawn
Okay Dawn, I will add that one to my tutorial list.
I have avoided using piping nozzles with RI because I work so slowly and I am afraid of the RI setting up inside. Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent this?
