With these fantastic products in your arsenal, you're ready to transform ordinary cookies into holiday masterpieces. Now, let's talk about the cookies themselves. We understand that not everyone has hours to spend in the kitchen, especially during the busy holiday season. That's why we recommend starting with our pre-made cookies. We have Christmas cookies with cocoa for that extra touch of chocolatey flavour, heart-shaped gingerbread cookies for a classic touch, and gingerbread hearts that you can hang on your tree for a charming and edible decoration. It's a big-time time saver, so you can spend more time enjoying the festivities and less time baking. With your cookies ready to go, the fun part begins. The key to successful decoration lies in choosing the right icing. Opt for royal icing if you want a smooth, glossy finish, or go for buttercream icing for a rich and creamy texture. It's all about personal preference! When it comes to applying icing, there's no right or wrong way. Let your imagination run wild and experiment with different techniques. Whether you prefer delicate piping or vibrant flood icing, each cookie is a blank canvas waiting for your artistic touch. Remember, imperfections only add to the charm! And let's not forget about the finishing touch - sprinkles and other edible decorations! Sprinkle them with joy, add shimmering coloured sugars, or even top them off with edible glitter. Whatever you choose, these little embellishments will make your cookies shine like stars on a Christmas tree. You're officially a cookie Picasso! So, grab your Flying Tiger Copenhagen decoration gels and sprinkles, and let your creativity run wild this holiday season. Creative ideas for Christmas cookie designs Looking for some design inspiration? We've got you covered! If you're a fan of tradition, embrace classic Christmas themes like snowmen, candy canes, and gingerbread houses. These timeless designs will transport you straight to a winter wonderland. But if you want to add a modern twist, think outside the cookie box and experiment with contemporary designs. Who says Santa can't rock a trendy moustache? Let's take your creations to the next level. Have you ever heard of marbling? This technique involves swirling different colours of icing together to create a mesmerising pattern on your cookies. It's like creating edible works of art! Another technique that will surely impress your friends and family is called "stencilling." With stencilling, you can add intricate designs to your cookies by using a stencil and dusting powdered sugar or cocoa over it. The result is a professional-looking cookie that will leave everyone in awe. Tips for storing and gifting decorated cookies Now that you've created a batch of stunning masterpieces, it's important to know how to store them properly.
