Petit Gateau


Thanks for coming over today!
This week is all about these cookie cutters,
the latest treasure I found at the

When I'm hunting around at thrift stores, I usually look for
books, things for the home and lonely objects waiting
for a blah to TADA! make-over. Cookie cutters like
these are unexpected and even surprising that
they're in good condition & a complete set at that.

Here's what I'll use my cookie cutters for:
It's easy to use with professional looking results!

If you've never worked with fondant, it looks &
feels like clay. Pull out a piece and roll it out with
this special rolling pin that has rings to control
the fondant's thickness.

Take out the cookie cutters & punch away.
Make sure to keep the excess fondant in a zip-top bag
or air-tight container.

Doesn't it lend a special TADA! touch to a home-baked,
home-decorated cake?

It's a personal cake for a lovely birthday girl named Zoe.

  2. Okay, I don't even cook - but you are making me want to decorate something - anything. I didn't know they had fondant in a bag. How neat!
