Mother’s Day Breakfast in Bed Cookies

Let’s celebrate Moms!
I thought it would be super cute to prepare breakfast in bed for Mother’s day.
Happy Mother’s Day Mom!

To make these cookies you need:

Step by step tutorial Breakfast in Bed Cookies for Mother’s Day

Cookie Cutters : Oval Cookie Cutter (I used the largest cutter from the set to make the cereal bowl and I trimmed it with the smooth edger by SweetSugarbelle, Strawberry Cutter, Champagne Cutter, Beer Glass Cutter (to make the mason jar with the flower, I trimmed the handle) Croissant – hand cut with Pen Blade)

 Many of you wonder what kind of piping bags I use. I mainly use Disposable Piping Bags to decorate my cookies and I’ve used them to decorate cakes and with piping tips, too. They work well. I’ve used these bags for about 2 years now and I’ve got say so far so good. I get the 14inch ones because they are longer and I can easily tie the knot and trim the excess with scissors. No need to use the rubber bands.

 

I always start with the sketch board, though I have to admit it wasn’t always the case. In the beginning of my cookie decorating adventure I wasn’t thinking much about the designs, I just went with what ever I thought of at the moment.

 

If time allows I try to bake my cookie day ahead before I decorate. You can certainly decorate cookies on the day you bake them as I have done so many times. My preference though is letting them rest a day.
To make Croissant Cookie I printed a template and hand cut the cookies. I’m sure you can probably get a custom cutter made or maybe there is a croissant cutter out there. I don’t have one in my vast collection of cookie cutters.
I’ve been decorating for years and I’m realizing I go through stages of techniques I like to do more than others. I really like using wet on wet technique. Advantage is you get your cookies done  fast, disadvantage is you need color lots of icing. I know painting on royal icing is hugely popular these days but I’m just not into that so much, not yet. But you never know next month I might pick it up because I’ll see something inspiring and painting will be my new thing. For now let’s make some Croissants with 3 different colors of royal icing, shall we?

 

I like Mimosa, it’s light and refreshing and celebbratory so why not for Mother’s day.

 

I also make a lot of royal icing transfers, they are time savers and can bring your design to life.
For the cereal bowl I made cereal and blueberries ahead of time. To make royal icing transfers you can use Parchment paper, Wax paper or Food Grade Acetate Sheets.  I prefer using acetate sheets.

Even though I have few mason jar cookie cutters I used a Beer Glass Cutter to make the mason jar with the flower. All I had to do is trim the side handle and look it is a perfect fit. I also love this flower design so much.
