Easter Cookies


During the Easter time we usually give chocolate as a gift to our loved once. This year I decided to make something different.  I chose to give Easter Cookies.  The recipe I chose was a basic Vanilla Cookie recipe, and the decoration was done with fondant.  
My kids helped me a bit with this project, and I have to admit that it took me almost 3 hours to finish decorating all 45 cookies.  I think that next year the project it’s going to be cupcakes.  For the moment I feel so tired I do not even think about making any more cookies this year J.  
Below you can find photos of my creations.  I hope you like them. Happy Easter!!

    Eftychia, These cookies are adorable! And the presentation is even better. What a cute little cookie package - from the decorating to the pots you put them in - who wouldn't want one of these in their Easter basket!

    Hello! Thanks for your comment! I saw your friend request on food buzz and figured you must be Greek or Cypriot since you have the same name as my thea. My former last name was Mantzouranis! Thanks for reaching out and I look forward to reading more of your posts! Especially now that I just had a baby!

    Best,

    Kat

    These cookies are beautiful and the presentation is amazing. From all your other recipes I have read, you have great presentation skills. This is something I need to work on. I really enjoy reading your recipes. Have you had training in cake or other cooking methods? How did you learn to create such well presented creations?

    Thank you for your nice comments. I really appreciate your opinion because this is what makes me better and better. I had no formal training of any kind, I only have passion and love for what I do. I tried several recepies and methods, failing many times, before I reached this point. I still make mistakes but I never give up. As a school teacher told me once "practice makes perfect" and my first boss told me "failure is the mother of success". These two phrases are always with me in everything I do.

"Κοπιάστε στην Κουζίνα μου" (από την Ήβη Λιακοπούλου)

ΑΦΗΣΤΕ ΤΟ ΣΧΟΛΙΟ ΣΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΜΠΕΙΤΕ ΣΕ ΚΛΗΡΩΣΗ ΓΙΑ ΤΟ ΒΙΒΛΙΟ! -------------------------------------
Η συμπατριώτισσα μας και φίλη μου Ήβη Λιακοπούλου, από το μπλογκΚοπιάστε στην Κουζίνα μου, που ζει στην Ελλάδα εδώ και πάρα πολλά χρόνια, επιτέλους μετάφρασε στα Ελληνικά το βιβλίο της Mint Cinnamon & Blossom Water, Flavours of Cyprus, Kopiaste, το οποίο αγόρασα μόλις κυκλοφόρησε, πριν 1½  χρόνο περίπου, και πραγματικά εκεί βρήκα όλες τις παραδοσιακές συνταγές της Κύπρου. Ήδη μαγείρεψα πάρα πολλές συνταγές και οφείλω να ομολογήσω ότι καμία δεν με απογοήτευσε.
Εάν έχετε συγγενείς και φίλους, Έλληνες, Κύπριους ή γνώστες της Ελληνικής γλώσσας που θέλουν να μάθουν την Κυπριακή κουζίνα, σίγουρα ένα τέτοιο βιβλίο θα εκτιμηθεί δεόντως. Κάντε το δώρο στον εαυτό σας ή στα παιδιά σας που είναι φοιτητές και θέλουν να μάθουν να μαγειρεύουν, ή ακόμη κάντε το δώρο στους φίλους σας αυτά τα Χριστούγεννα. Στοιχίζει όσο δύο καφέδες!! Μόνο 6 Ευρώ από το μπλογκ της, σε μορφή pdf, αλλά εάν το θέλετε σε άλλη μο…

Mickey Mouse Birthday Cake

This cake was made for Demetris, an adorable two year old boy!  I hope he likes it. His mother told me that he likes Mickey Mouse very much!
Here you can see the cake decoration steps.  I used buttercream, in order to make the surface of the cake smooth.

This cake took me 3 hours to decorate it. The black part was the hardest to finish. I used wilton's black decoratcing icing. Happy Birthday Demetri!!!
