This cookie is for my dear friend @Manu biscotti decorati who likes sunflowers.  I wish she is going to have another wonderful year in new place and her good health. 

Let's meet Manu who is going to be our live chat guest on August 26th.  Her cookies are always beautiful, unique and very artistic.   And her tutorial is very clear to follow.

One leaf of sunflower and the arm are royal icing transfer.  The color of sky is petal dust & Wilton gel color with alcohol.   The girl's straw hat is knitting technique, I refer to the technique of @iSugarfy (aka swissophie)

My dear Ryoko, thank you! I love this cookie so much! I feel exactly like this little girl looking up at the huge sunflower, with so many things changing around me  (like moving abroad and both kids in college)...

I love sunflowers and this cookie has brought memories of when I was a kid and obliged my parents to "kidnap" a huge sunflower that I had seen growing alone along the road close to a sunflower field. They finally said yes and then we transplanted it on our terrace. I took care of it, and also ate the seeds with my friends. We had also more sunflowers growing for the next few years. You couldn't know about this story. Thank you

I am really glad to know that you like this a lot.   

I did not know the story  but I wanted to make this cookie like an old photo.   This cookie is my favorite.
