Stringwork-Framed Cookie

Gorgeous !

For the Practice Bakes Perfect Challenge # 44 I made a large-format cookie 23 by 16 cm. I refreshed practice and knowledge re-watching Julia Usher's videos as #5  How to Top-Coat, Outline and Flood Cookies, 2-D Royal Icing Transfers, Summer Botanical Series and for the first time the Auntie's Cakery video to learn on suspended stringwork. I decided to make icing leaves transfers and patina on cookie. Had fun playing with royal icing gravity. Learned to be patience with times of icing drying too

You did an awesome job! Congratulations ♥️

Thank you, Julia!  I enjoyed very much in the process of doing it. The Practice Bakes Perfect Challenge #44 was an stimulating opportunity for creative thoughts on stringwork! I will keep learning not only on cookies but also on how to pos!!! Thanks all the team and community of Cookie Connection!!

Absolutely stunning

Posting here takes a little while to get the hang of, but, once you do, it will become second nature!

Beautiful Susana.

@Susana Mattano This cookie is absolutely exquisite! There is so much beautiful piping work going on, and each detail compliments the others. I also love your choice of colors - the gold really adds to the elegance. I can't help but notice those leaves resting on top of that delicate stringwork frame. You must have had a lot of patience and a very steady hand!

I love this pretty and fine work!! So stunning, dear @Susana Mattano ❤️
