Step 1 :
Roll , cut and bake your cookies as directed using your no-spread cookie dough , and cookie cutters from Custom Cookie Cutters . I roll my dough to 6mm thick . Allow to cool completely .
Step 2 :
Prepare your Lustre Stamping kit . Unpack the kit and remove the doubleended spatula from the plastic casing . Use the small end of the spatula to dip into your lustre dust and spread a small amount of lustre onto the stamp pad . Carefully scrape any excess back into your lustre dust pot using the ingenious opening at the top of the lustre casing .
Step 3 : Step 4 :
Roll out your preferred fondant and set yourself up with your lustre stamping kit , embossers and cutter ! ( hot tip : if the fondant is very tacky , leave it for 5-10 min to let it “ dry ” this will ensure it doesn ’ t stick to the embosser )
Take your embosser and rub it lightly onto the stamp pad . Rubbing will cause friction and help the lustre stick to the embosser . You can check the embosser and keep rubbing / stamping until the desired darkness is achieved . Lightly stamp the fondant . The lustre is doing all the work ! So no need to emboss to far down , or too deep .
