Christmas in Purple and Orange | icingsugarkeks

Christmas in purple and orange

My annual Christmas arrangements are a little more colorful this year because I planned them for the challenge. I bought the basic set from Lorena years ago and since then I have made these cookies every year in a different color and with constantly changing decorations. This year acorn leaves and acorns were added and decorated into a flower arrangement. The molds for this are from Lorena, from me and I bought them. Also new this year are the small green twigs, which I also garnished. However, I don't really know if it doesn't seem rather overloaded?! (But it should fit the challenge)

The cookies themselves are butter cookies.
The materials:
moldet leaves and twigs: marzipan
small green branches: icing
Bow: fondant
Pearls: sugar pearls
Shine: Glitter
These are 5 different materials. The middle cookie in brown and orange only uses 4 materials. The green icing branches are missing.

Yes, I actually look forward to these cookies the most every year because I can always do something different.
