First time decorating biscuits

[Bundiibird]

So My work mates and I and throwing my boss a wedding morning tea. He and his partner are getting married next weekend and we are celebrating this week.

I decided to make wedding themed cookies and it was my first time decorating with fondant. I think they turned out ok even if I do say so myself. I am a little bit proud of them.

I have some more to finish so I will put some more pics up later. I cannot share them on my FB page as someone from work might see them.

Amanda, those look professional! Fondant is not easy to use at all, I made a complete and utter mess the only time I tried.
They are beautiful, really too pretty to eat Can't wait to see the rest of the pics!
Your boss is going to be so touched at what y'all are doing.

Being an American, I was very curious to see what biscuits you decorate. Heavy? Sausage?

Clicked the thread- ten seconds of confusion.
Ohhhhh riiiiiight- they call cookies biscuits and we call biscuits cookies.

Pretty! Very lovely. Maybe for fun find a few of those glittery sprinkle bits that are little sticks, and make embroidered lattice on the top or belt. I used to work In a dress store, so I can be very specific about dresses.

Just lay them out in little diamonds, being super careful. Like a wee little lattice. Then sprinkle a big if glitter dust over the design to blend it and hide any imperfections.

You could also take those flowers, take off the petals, turn the center into a belt brooch, and the petals info a scalloped lace by laying them on either side of the belt, with a. Tiny dab of white to make them seem transparent.

Just a couple thoughts from a dress lady

Thanks Terry. I have been doing lots of reading on how I'm to do it since to volunteered.

These are the joined hearts.

I just have the wedding cake ones left to do.

Thank you for the suggestions Teknogeddon. I have quite enjoyed doing this so I think I might try making some more and try some of your ideas.

Amanda, you did a wonderful job! Worlds better than my attempt at decorating with fondant, before I got good at it I made myself ill eating the mistakes. Your work looks professional like you have had years of experience.
