Elegant, fun, and easy!
With vintage lace once again becoming a popular trend not only for weddings gowns,
but the invitations, cakes, and wedding favors. The cookies above were designed to be the wedding favors
and the table place setting.
Not only does lace have an aristocratic touch, but a sense of fantasy.
Like my grandma used to say. “All fashion trends recycle you just have to wait a century or so!”
She would know she was 101 when she past last year.
I must admit it is nice to see lace come back.

Delicate!
Bake you sugar cookies and allow them to cool completely prior to decorating them.
Mix 75% fondant with 25% flower paste for the garden rose (rather then 50/50).
The lace part of the fantasy rose is extremely fragile when it is dry, therefore it’s a good idea to wait about 3 to 4 hours and then attach the garden lace rose. You will want the flower to still be slightly pliable to prevent breakage (dry enough, however to hold the cupped shape).
Watch the video to learn how to decorate The Vintage Lace Blooming Garden Wedding cookie.
These cookies could easily become a DIY wedding favor or for bridal showers.
“The springtime bride is story eyed, as poets often say
No other bride would dare to dream the dreams of April, May.”
