After I got word that I was going to be going in for a trial day at the bakery, I started poking around online to get some ideas to play around with. These are two that caught my eye that I decided to try at home. The filigree work looked intimidating, but actually wasn't so hard--the hardest part was the thickness of the icing. I found out pretty quickly that if it was too thin it would just become one big blob.
And I liked the whimsy of the swirls on the leaves over the plain old lines--I think that's the most fun part of cookies. It's not always required that the cookie look just like its real-life counterpart.
