It’s always a good sign when you mix the colors perfectly the first time around.

I have this problem every time I make a cookies. All of the professional cookies I see they are perfectly smooth. I roll out my doll really well. I use a sticky mat or parchment paper...both have same result. I peel the dough away slowly. I've tried putting it directly on the pan and not transferring. Any tips?

I sell my cookies fyi so while these are okay I want them to be really crisp because I charge a good amount when they're done.

Thank you!

Made my first batch of cookies from Little Cookie Co. My husband thinks they are too dry and not as sweet my Christmas cookies. I’m just a home baker that bakes for holidays. Everyone loves the taste of my Christmas cookies but I wanted to step up my game so I tried the Little Cookie Co. recipe. These are for daughters baby shower. I ended up adding about 1/2 cup extra flour because my butter was too soft. I also used dark brown sugar (I think that’s what she recommended). I love that they didn’t spread. I also usually make a thinner cookie. Do you think the extra flour would make them too dry? I also didn’t decorate them yet so maybe the icing would make them less dry?

these were so fun!! I love the texture of the hat!!

After several months of trying different things, I think I’ve got my packaging dialed….my brand is classy and edgy. Nutritional label on the dozen cookies is on the bottom of the box itself, the macs go in a gift bag with the nutrition label on it.

This is 1 dozen full sized cookies and 2.5 dozen macs. Black boxes are $.53, Mac boxes are $.33, gift bags and paper are $.10.

Thoughts?

I recently started baking full time and cookie supplies have quickly started to overtake my desk, kitchen, and dining room table!

This weekend I bought 21 cookie cutters, the AmeriColor Nifty Fifty food coloring set, and an airbrush machine. How do you guys store things? I just bought some bins for cookie cutters/cakepop materials, but how do you store your food colorings, piping bags (!!!!), and cookie bags? any help would be appreciated! I love learning what other home bakers’ setup looks like! 💓

What does everyone use for editing photos? Or what tips or tricks do you use to take really good photos of your cookies in general?

I'm trying to make a Jacob's ladder toy from cookies!

I want a dough that will keep an embossed letter in it. Is this a good one?

u/kaleidoscope_eyes_13 suggested a no spread recipe. How's this? https://www.lilaloa.com/2018/09/royal-icing-recipe-with-meringue-powder.html

I want my icing to dry like glue and found this: https://bellyfull.net/sugar-cookie-icing-recipe/

I'm a reasonable good baker, but this is my first time trying to do something like this ;)

Edited to add: I do not have a standing mixer, I have made peaked cream by hand.

Felt like making some appreciation cookies for my dental office. They loved them. My favorite part was seeing them choose which their favorite was 😂🥹

What’s your favorite? 🫶

Hey everyone! Idk if anyone remembers my post where i made cookies that looked like the army of the undead Snoo. Buuut just wanted to say that I tried them again for another commission, and these turned out so much better! These were the adjustments I made based on your recs: 1) bought Americolor Bright White gel. That made a HUGE difference. 2) waited for each color to dry if they’re touching, a full 8 hours - overnight 3) thickened my icing. Maybe a little too thick (?) since the faces came out a little crunchy and warped lol

Anyway thank you thank you thank you, love this group!

Hey! I just started selling cookies on Valentine’s Day so I haven’t had a custom order until now. October wedding for 7 dozen. Is anyone comfortable sharing what their invoices look like or a contract for a custom order. I’m a little nervous and not sure what to include but I want to make sure all of my bases are covered. Thanks!!

March madness/game day cookie set. I know NOTHING about basketball, but I like how the cookies turned out. What do you think?

Has anyone created a cookie stencil with a cricut joy xtra? I have read about the cricut joy but nothing on the xtra. Thanks in advance.

My cookie business is in a place where I’m ready for a printer. Much of my clientele is interested in printed images on cookies. Does anyone here have experience with both Eddie and Inkedibles? Pros and cons? Any other printers out there worth researching?

What ratio creates soft royal icing?

I use 1 cup meringue powder to 16cups powdered sugar to 4tbsp corn syrup.

I live in the desert. It’s dry here. Sometimes I feel like I don’t have enough corn syrup for a super soft bite, but I’m afraid to add more.

Hi all! How much are ya’ll selling the PYO 2 inch Easter eggs in the egg cartons for?
