Happy 90th Birthday Mom! It's hard to believe that my mom turned 90 today. I sent her this "puzzle" cookie/s. She called when she received it and I walked her through putting it together. I decided to make a short video that I sent her so that she could visualize it.
It's always fun to make cookies for special events and for people you love. My mom is very healthy and will probably be with us to celebrate her 100th birthday. I made several more cookies for her as she lives in a group home and I thought she might want to share with those who have cared for her over the last several years. She told me that she plans to eat them all by stretching out the cookies to celebrate her birthday over a full week. I'll post the other cookies soon. Happy 90th Mom ❤️
Dear Carol, your gift of love is so creative, beautiful and so full of love and gratitude for your darling Mum! Absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations on yet another outstanding entry.♥️

Lovely, Carol! I am sure your mom loved them! Couple of questions: (1) Regarding the embossed white areas: is that embossed icing or fondant? (2) Where are the fondant accents on these cookies (the white rolled, tubular arcs, or something else)? TIA!

Hi Julia! Thank you . The fondant accents are indeed the small arcs on the bottom of the 5 "fan" cookies. I used Intricut parchment design squares to emboss the left side of each fan cookie (put the parchment paper onto the wet icing and let it dry to achieve the floral design on one side of the cookies). I wasn't sure how else to describe the pattern.
