Eleven Floral Cookies for Mother's Day
From 2015, Happy Happy Happy Cookies
This is still one of my favorite sets. Just as described - happy.
From 2013, Brush Embroidery Cookies
This decorating technique is so fun and pretty. Make an entire platter or add these to a cookie set.
From 2012, Sunflower Cookies
Super easy. Super cute. Oh, and the middles are filled with chocolate sprinkles. Yes, please!
From 2013, Yellow Rose Buttercream Decorated Cookies
Yellow roses were my mom's favorite flower. I think she really would have loved these cookies. These are SO delish!
From 2014, Gold Stenciled Floral Thank You Cookies
Who deserves a "thank you" more than Mom? Hint: no one. No airbrush is required to make these stenciled cookies.
From 2013, Rose Lattice Cookies
Made to celebrate the birth of my niece, Rosie, these cookies use an unusual tool for making the roses. All these years later, and I still can't decide what color cookie I like the most.
From 2015, Airbrushed Floral Cookies
Now, these DO use an airbrush, and this post walks through the basics of using one. I love the muted, soft colors in this palette...and they'd be pretty without the stenciled bit as well.
From 2013, Bluebonnet Cookies
Have a Texas mom? A mom who is missing Texas? These cookies are sure to be a hit. Who needs bluebonnet photos when you can have bluebonnet COOKIES?!?
From 2021, Double-Decker Whimsical Rose Cookies
You know I love a double-decker cookie. Change up the colors to your mom's favorite.
From 2019, Color-Inspired Bouquet Cookies
Ah, this cookie color palette speaks to me. Read the post, and you'll learn what inspired these cookies!
From 2012, Frosted Pink Rose Cookies
This "open" rose is whimsical and can be changed up to fit any color scheme. Adding the sanding sugar is up to you. It does make them look a bit like roses dusted with a late spring frost.
I have one more floral-ish cookie tutorial I'm hoping to get on the blog before Mother's Day. Fingers crossed!
