Flower Cookies

These are white cake mix cookies, covered in melted white chocolate and decorated with fondant flowers. To ruffle the edges of the flowers, I rolled a toothpick along the edges to thin them. Then, I used extra balls of fondant to prop up the frilled edges while the fondant dried.



For the blue flower, I wanted an ombre effect, so I colored three small pieces of fondant different shades of blue. Then I layered them, darkest to lightest. I used sugar pearls for the centers of the flowers. Here is the royal icing piping before adding adding luster dust.



Here it is after. I used a tiny paintbrush to paint the writing with gold luster dust mixed with a little water.
