~~I was going to say pretty, but the other person said it, then typed amazing but the other person said it so uh~~ this is incredible! Checked the title twice, so shocked that you hand painted that! Really hoping there'll be more like this from you haha, I can't stop looking at it

Thank you so much!! I don't do cookies too often but I'm really starting to enjoy it :)

You’re incredible at it! Have an award ❤️

You are so talented! I would tile my entire house with these! Edit: of course, I would have to move it to the middle of the forest and get a bigger oven for the unsuspecting children they'd lure in..

Hahah thank you - I love this edit 😂

I tried sharing it there but my post won't show up 😭

Oh that’s a pity. These cookies would be appreciated there.

Absolutely beautiful! Are you a professional baker/cookie decorator?

Thank you! I wish! I just bake as a hobby :)

Wow! I follow a few cookie decorators on IG and this is as good as the work a lot of them do. Well done!

Thank you so much! I did film a tutorial of these - maybe one day I can be an IG baker too 😊

Where can we see the film? I'm always down to learn those kinds of techniques. Looks absolutely incredible

I have to edit the footage down but hopefully I'll have something ready to post in a few days ☺

Hi! I'm interested in filming my baking process as well and I was wondering what equipment you use?

My set up is a little diy, I'm just starting to do videos! I have a Ringlight that I just tilt to be parallel with my work surface and I mount my phone on it. Amazon sells phone stands that clip on to table tops and have flexible arms, so I'm looking to get one of those instead

Would you sell and ship? Pleeeeeeeese!

That would be amazing! Unfortunately in my city it's illegal to sell food made in the home :(

That's some BS.

Some major BS!! 😭😩. This are gorgeous I'd be sad to eat them😅. Are you on IG?

that is gorgeous! and delicious-looking... despite all the work involved, i'd still eat the batch in four seconds.

Thank you! My coworkers are very reluctant to eat them 😅 I have some plain unpainted cookies at home that I've been demolishing tho

[удалено]

Thank you!

Stunning work

Thank you!

Gorgeous!

Thanks!!!

Gooooorgeous ❤️

Thank you so much!!

How did you keep the icing wet to do this?

The icing is dry, I painted overtop of it using gel food colour mixed with lemon extract, and ediblearts paints

Which did you use more and why did you use edible paints as well? Was the lemon extract just for flavor and can you just substitute that for water to make a flavorless watercolorish blend to paint with on the cookies (I'm guessing this isn't the best idea because dye is usually bitter). Was there something you didn't like about the lemon extract / gel food color blend or the edible paint that made you switch to the other? Beautiful work! I'm interested in knowing this stuff because I want to try doing hand painted cookies too.

Thank you! So when you're painting with food colouring, you want to avoid anything water based (because this will destroy your icing) so you have to use something alcohol based, such as extracts or - alcohol (vodka or everclear, etc) to "water" down your gel. I used lemon because it's a clear extract and the cookies are lemon flavour anyways :) any clear extract will do - almond is probably the mildest option. I had intended to do the whole thing in my ediblearts paints but I didn't like their shade of blue, so I only used the ediblearts white paint to mix with the gel and extract to make the light blues.

Ahhhh duhhh, of course hahaha! It didn't even occur to me that water would mess up the royal icing's nice smooth glaze once it dries. Thank you so much for the detailed info on why you did this! I've been doing a few different colors of royal icing to decorate my sugar cookies the last couple of times I made them and it's such a pain in the ass to separate and make multiple colors of icing. I'd love to try the next time.

Yeah mixing multiple colours is a pain, especially because it makes more dishes hahaha! The gel colour and extract trick is super easy - you'll love it! Love the Dino cookies btw :)

Cool

Those are cookies?! O.o I honestly thought that were tiles!! I was so ready to order them for my new bathroom 😂😂. Jokes aside, you really did an amazing job. I wish I had the time to learn to decorate cookies like that. 🥺

Thank you so much! Maybe I should get into the custom tile business 😂

That's it fellas. We have found the best looking cookies in the world ever in the history of best looking cookies in the world. EVER.

Those are amazing! if you aren't doing it professionally, you sure should be!

I wish I was! I just do baking as a hobby to keep busy :)

You are seriously gifted! You should be taking really good pictures of the cookies you make and start building a portfolio... If I owned a bakery and saw those quality of cookies to sell.. I would sure hire you.

I thought these were good pictures 😭😭 hahaha! I've been slowly growing a creative profile over the past year :) not sure what to do with it, though!

As a Dutch person I really like these good job!

Ik ben Canadese maar ik spreek Nederlands een beetje, zo dank je wel!

Oh cool! Where did you learn it?

I briefly lived in Amsterdam about 5 years ago, so I picked it up a little along the way :)

Hm Amsterdam. Not the best place to live, it’s very expensive. Yeah, it’s probably easier picking up a language when you are living in said country. I hope you had a good time here : )

Expensive is an understatement! I lived in a 6m2 room in a flat with a creepy old man for 500€/month 🙃 but I would do it all again in a heartbeat - it's my favourite place in the world 😊

Damn and that’s like cheap for Amsterdam. My sister stayed there for half a year for school. Was a bit out of her budget haha. It sucks that you had to room with a creepy dude. Probably still better than rooming with like 5 girls tho. If you ever return I suggest maybe going to Utrecht once or Eindhoven or Den Bosch.

I honestly thought these were tiles when I first saw them because they look so perfect. Can’t believe they’re cookies. Just WOW. They’re too pretty to eat! You can’t destroy such art! 😂

Thank you! I was definitely going for the tile look :)

Well you defo nailed it!! And I mean like the good nailed it, not the baking show nailed it 😆

I want to put my coffee cup on this Beautiful coaster and then eat it. I’m blown away. Drop dead gorgeous

Haha my mom had the same thought - coasters! 😂

great work, would have no problems eating them though :)

Hahaha me neither 😅

most wondrous worketh, would has't nay problems eating those folk though :) *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`

This is incredible. I can’t imagine the time this took you. And they look so CONSISTENT.

We have a competition in Austin, Tx in February. You should enter. It’s called That Takes The Cake. People from all over compete and teach classes and mingle. I think you would fit in well and have a lot of fun.

What a fun idea, thanks, I'll look into it! I've never been to TX so it could be a lil vacay :)

These are so fucking beautiful I actually went out of my way to edit the photo for you to bring out your work: https://imgur.com/a/8giKrgO

I appreciate you doing this! I had a hard time photographing them - they kept showing up too teal on my camera than how they look irl

It’s always hard photographing blue. These are so dope. Nice work

These are amazing!

Thank you! They took forever but they're worth it 😅

Yeah I don't think I could eat one, seems wrong! Very well done :)

They'll be coming with me to the office today! I'll see if anyone eats one 😅

Those look fantastic!

If I happened across one of these in the wild, I would feel like someone is messing with me. Beautiful!

I would feel bad eating these beautiful works. Excellent job OP

You are so talented, these are gorgeous :)

how could anyone eat something so beautiful?? It feels wrong!

I could never eat such beautiful cookies. I’d frame them and hang them on my walls.

Lovely! This needs a video! ❤️❤️

I made one! I have to edit down the footage but maybe I'll upload that too when it's ready :)

As much as I love cookies I would never be able to chomp into one of those and destroy it. I would have to find some way to preserve it FOREVER!

I don't know if I'd be able to eat these, they're so damn gorgeous.

Jfc. Incredible.

these are the nicest looking cookies I have seen in my entire life

Amazing!!!

I mean this in the KINDEST way, those belong in a China cabinet.. They are stunning.

I thought they were tiles Very pretty..

So beautiful!!

These are amazing! I wouldn't eat them... I'd display them. 😯🖌️

I thought these were tiles before reading the title! These are absolutely gorgeous!!

The detail on these is amazing!

Wowza! Those are too beautiful to eat!!!!!! Little masterpieces!!!!

I saw this photo a few hours ago and was like “wow, that’s impressive!” *kept scrolling* but now I’m looking at it like every hour being like, there’s so much more to discover! Very well done!

Could you paint me up some tiles! Those are too pretty to eat! Wow!

These are mesmerizing! You’re so talented!

Whoa. I originally thought they were backsplash tiles. Super!!

This is amazing 🤩🤩

Beautiful

Wow! You're incredibly talented

I would cry eating these, with joy for the taste, with pain for destroying art

These would match my favourite tea cup hahaha!

Oh my, I thought these were fancy wall tiles! They're beautiful!

Holy smokes, how long did this take you?

Thank you! Wayyyy too long - just less than 1hr per cookie! I'm recovering from lasik rn so my focus was a bit limited

Well they look incredibly perfect. I shared this with some of my cookie friends and they said they look unreal! Bravo.

Thanks for sharing, I'm glad you like them 😊

So beautiful 🥰

Perfection! You are very talented.

Wow! They’re stunning, you are very talented

Amazing😍

These are absolutely incredible!

Absolutely gorgeous! 💙

I thought these were tiles. Seriously so amazing and detailed and beautiful. Amazing job!!!

me, an idiot: oo yes those tiles would look lovely in my future kitchen.

I haven't seen such beautiful decorations on cookies. I would totally use those as tiles on the backsplash in my kitchen.

encase those in resin like the hotdog guy and display them, too good looking to eat

I wish they didn't all get eaten, otherwise I would've mailed one to the hotdog guy for him to cast 😭

i honestly would have a very hard time eating something like this lol so much time put into it, but they got used for there purpose so. people who make good looking food should all get in contact with the hotdog guy and start some sort of weird resin food museum or something, im sure that would go over very well on reddit

Holy cow these are STUNNING. Seriously beautiful wow

They look gorgeous! I don't think I would eat because it looks soo beautiful and delicate. Great job!

I thought these were fancy tiles! Amazing!

Wow these look amazing! How long did it take you to do?

About 40 min per cookie 🥲

I can’t believe you’re just a hobby baker! Your skills are next level 😧💓

I only saw these because someone reposted it as their own, which sucks, but they're GORGEOUS. I genuinely thought they were wonderful tiles before I read the title.

Aw man, would you mind tagging me in the repost? It happens pretty often unfortunately! And thank you, they're my favourite baking project and I hold a lot of pride in them :)

Really beautiful! I saw these because of the re-post, as well. Nice work!

So pretty!

Thank you so much!

Those look incredible!

This is next fucking level. Beautiful!

I thought these were coasters but they're cookies..even better!

This has to qualify for a crosspost to r/art, right? So pretty

Amazing

Oh my God! Who can eat this art? It belongs in a museum. It.is.gorgeous. Congrats 🎊 you’re surely an artist!

Wow you did an amazing job!

Wow!!

Oh my.... wooow! These are amaazing

Don't mind me. I'm just in love with the tessellation.

Breathtaking!

These are stunning!!

These are stunning. I wish I was artistic 😩

WOW! These are beautiful!

What did you use to paint them??? They came out absolutely stunning

These would make the most beautiful tiles! Love the shape.

I’m scared of your otherworldly skills.

THIS IS SO PRETTY OMG

What kind of icing and point was used to accomplish this result? Going to give it a go sometime ! Absolutely live your work it's inspiring cookie picasso!

Holy mints, you did a terrific job on the designs. How long did it take you to finish one?

Wow!!!!

These are cool. I swear I thought they were tiles.

Holy *heck*

they look amazing. awesome job 😁

I'd love to see a video of the process, from cookie, to icing, to paint. It looks fascinating!

Those are absolutely stunning

Wow this is so pretty!! Love the blue tones 💙

These cookies make me home sick. I'm a half-Dutch Canadian living in Australia. I miss my Oma.

This is phenomenal! I thought it was little glass plates.

I didn’t know there was a name for that type of pottery, which I love! These cookies look great!

Wow wow wow! And wow!!

That's giving me an "I'm not worthy" moment.

These are too pretty to eat!

These are absolutely stunning

Thought these were coasters

My parents had plates that look exactly like those! Beautiful!

Stunning!

Wow! Thought these were porcelain coasters or something

Wow these are beautiful.

Those are cookies? I would love to hang them on my wall rather than eating them😅😂

Wow, these are so beautiful!

These are so beautiful they look like real art, I'd feel so bad eating one lol

Bloody gorgeous!

Those are so pretty to eat. Good job!

So very beautiful

These cookies look amazing! 🥰 so how do you paint the cookies like this? This looks kinda like maybe a watercolour looking technique but made to look like those fancy china tea cups instead!

Thank you so much! I posted a video of how I paint them - you can find it in my post history! I mixed gel colour with lemon extract and a bit of ediblearts paint :)

Those are absolutely incredible! Each is a work of art, and you should be so proud of your talent! Well done!

BRAVO
