    The lady making my wedding cake does these cookies http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.199784856714130.57418.124573544235262&type=3 and they are so gorgeous...but a couple of pounds a pop! Mine won't be anywhere near as beautiful or professional but they will taste good and it will be personal.

    Wow, shoes and biscuits look great....but you need to take the biscuits into work for consumption whilst you are still practicing with the icing otherwise you may have issues fitting into your wedding dress :D.

    If you're happy that the biscuit base is right, you can scrape off the icing and keep practicing on the same. Or ice some baking parchment. You just need a steady hand and some practiice after all.

  • What if they did icing base and you were in charge or writing? Still fingers crossed they will come out of the freezer fine and then problem solved. Looking fab so far and I think they are very very pretty.

    This is what we were doing yesterday - I have a pic of a big sheet of baking parchment with loads of names iced on it!

    Will definitely be taking the biscuits into work! I'm going to make a batch for my form at the end of term and ice all their names on them, that should be good practice!

    You could also get some practice in at the school fete if you're having one - running a personalised biscuit stand!

    I'm actually slightly disappointed with it because I really don't think it's worth the price...but it's still pretty...

    lovely shoes!!
    re the biscuit you could buy a tappit with the alphabet and do the names before hand and then glue them onto the biscuits it they dont freeze they dont cost much come in different fonts and with a bit of practice they come out really well

    I do really like those shoes. What kind of fit are they? My feet are a bit on the wide side, I wonder if they do them in a wide fit...
