Happy Pride!!!


I've been invited to a Gay Pride party and I'm so excited. Actually, I feel much like Bethany Frankel in The Housewives of NYC going to Pride Island - it's kind of like going to the world's most incredible buffet and you can't have any of it. I can, however, enjoy the energy and the party atmosphere.

I decided to take the theme and bring something with me that would follow the theme. I took our recipe for Sugar Cookies

My friend "S" or photo girl as she likes to be called came over and helped me create and execute a pattern. We took fondant and divided it into 6 portions to represent the six colours of the Rainbow Flag . Each portion was dyed with a neon colour. Maybe I should have picked up some gloves!!! Duh!!! We cut out fondant daisies...






We did a few practise patterns and decided that this one was the most pleasing.
The daisies were fastened to the cookies with buttercream icing.






Now, all that's left is Getting Food Colouring off the Hands
