'Man Yue' Customised Cookies!

Hello World! Here are the pictures from my first attempt baking for my first order! It's for my friend's sister's 'man yue' (full moon) celebration that was on 18-4-10!

9cm chocolate chip cookies baking away! Looking good!

After decorating 2 sets of 13 cookies which mind you took me the whole morning (7am-12pm)! I baked extra just in case cos it is my first time, you never know what would happen! :) Also because my handwriting looks like a pri 1 child(my friends will attest to this!), I had to practise piping the words on a tracing paper until I was confident enough to pipe on the cookie for real! Turned out not too bad I must say... :P

Another version of the cookie! I felt extremely happy, satisfied and proud of myself with this accomplishment! Even more so because I learnt the decorating methods from making of the royal icing to the different piping methods all online.

Some of the detail I decided to add at the last minute because I felt it was too plain. Glad I did! :)

The order was for 30 cookies! But she was giving away 20 in the boxes, so I converted 10 cookies to heart-shaped cookies with the letter 'K' on it and put it into a cookie jar! Can you see my calling card tied to the cookie bag? :D

Whats 'De Cookie Jar' without an actual cookie jar!

Baby Kayla with her cookie :) Aw....

Pamela and her mother! Thanks for giving me my first order!

I find this picture so comical!!! Pamela even tried to press her eyebrows and said it was super hard! hahaha!
