4th of July Cookies & Zebra Cake

Forth of July 2011 Cookies

I saw these Hello Kitty and Mickey Mouse cookie cutters at Party City and had to buy them. These cookies were the first I have decorated with royal icing flooding. The flooding didn't work like I expected it too. For small details, I think flooding is the way to go. But if your background is going to be all one color, I still think a glaze is the best.

Zebra Cake 8-4-2011

I want a dark chocolate fudge cake, chocolate mousse filling, and chocolate icing. Walnuts on top. I want it to say Happy Birthday, with zebra strips and pink. Whew! What a combination. This is what I came up with.
