Lacrosse (oh and soccer and basketball)

Posted in Uncategorized by

Go LAX! …and I don’t mean the airport in Los Angeles.  These cookies were created for a graduate who will be playing university lacrosse in another month or so.  But in high school, he was a 3 sport guy- also playing basketball and soccer when in season.  You could call him a “ballsy” sort of guy or maybe say that he was a “well rounded” athlete.

Some day I will make an entire post without a pun.  …….Today is not that day.

The lacrosse stick head was drawn with an edible ink pen (Americolor for heavier lines and Rainbow Dust for fine lines).  The portrait cookie was first penned in from a photo provided by mom (using a KopyKake); then details were added with thinned gel and an artist’s brush.

His high school ‘mascot’ is the Flame so I had the basketball ‘on fire’ as it headed into the net.  Also netted a goal with the soccer ball!

2014 Graduation ideas

Posted in Uncategorized by


New York public high schools have their graduation ceremonies the last week of June.  They may be later than the rest of the country but they party the whole summer long.   Just wanted to give a taste for what fun you can have with custom cookies and “2014” graduates!

Had a screen shot of Helen on stage in the midst of Chinese dancing.  She’s so graceful and gorgeous that I wanted to make sure she got her own special cookie!

This party had two platters: one with a look at the past/a nod to the future and the other with all of the graduate’s sports interests.  The shot of him playing lacrosse was taken from a photo his mom sent me.
