Cookies Cutters
Royal Icing

Drinking Straw
Ribbon
- To create Noel Gingerbead Sign you’ll need :
- letter cookies cutters (The Cookie Cutter Company)
- mini bell cutter (Foose Cookie Cutters)
- Santa(Karen’s Cookies) or Santa hat cutter (Cooper Gifts)
- Assemble the sign while cookies are still unbaked, brush touching sides with a bit of water for better adherence.
- I hand cut a large base piece. I used a drinking straw to make 2 holes, later to be used for a pretty ribbon.
- Once pieces if baked, don’t move them around until completely cool.
I used 6 different cookie cutter to create the Noel gingerbead sign. |
