Step 11: Step 4: Step 1: Step 2: Take your pre baked cookies, white fondant and individual letter stamps prepared and ready to go. Roll out your fondant and cut your shapes using the same cutter you used for your cookies. Step 3: Stamp each cookie with your letters. I like to stamp all my fondant shapes first, and allow them to dry for a few minutes so I don’t stretch them out of shape when adding to my cookie. Step 5: Step 6: Step 7: Step 8: Flip them all over and wet the backs using water or sugar syrup. Hold your cookie upside down and place centred on the fondant. Gently lift and set aside right side up. Finish topping all your cookies. Add a small amount of each gel to the palette and fill with the alcohol. Mix the gel and alcohol together and dip your brush in to load it with liquid, dab and gently brush to a small area on your cookie, leaving room for your other colours. Step 13: Step 14: Step 15: Step 16: And the next… Finish off with your last colour. I like to leave some white fondant remaining. Take some edible gold paint or lustre mixed with alcohol, add some to a clean brush. Hold the brush over your cookies, and using your other hand, tap your wrist or the brush to splatter the gold over your cookies. Step 9: Take a paint pallet, gel colours of your choice, paint brush and some clear alcohol like rose spirit or vodka. f Step 10: www.facebook.com/jenellescustomcakes Step 12: Add the next colour
