Our Valentine’s Sugar cookies are BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!

We are excited to re-share one of our MOST POPULAR posts EVAH! *Warning! If you are easily offended, please do not read too far down in this post. {No, there isn’t any crazy inappropriate stuff here!  We are talking about sugar cookies. ;)}

Do you remember the gorgeous Sugar Cookies at my Twins’ First Sweet Shoppe Birthday Party?  Well,…I didn’t make them. My incredibly talented friend, Marianne of Sweetopia, created them.  Since then, I have attempted royal icing sugar cookies several times.  While I am a long shot from becoming my idol Sweetopia, I’m having fun trying.

Are you in need of  Valentine’s sugar cookie Ideas? I’ve got three in one!

First up. My sweet ‘Rated G’ marbled Valentine Sugar Cookies. These are definitely the ones you want to take to the kids’ Valentine’s Day parties.

Aren’t they fun? This sweet little heart border is surprisingly easy to create!

Royal Icing Rules!

Using royal icing, simply outline and fill your heart with a base color.  Then add dots of a contrasting color around the edges.  Simply drag the toothpick through the dots around the edges.

{You can find a more detailed explanation about marbling here and a video here}

Awww. I love his little chubby hand.

Look at these sweet innocent little sprinkles. They are about to SPICE things up around here!

Lingerie Cookies

‘Rated PG’ – Lingerie Bra Heart Shaped Cookies.

Find some heart sprinkles to imitate a lacy bra….

Outline with royal icing…

Fill in…

Smooth out icing with toothpick. Shake to settle.

Aren’t these sexy!?  Add a little edible glitter and you’ve got one sassy cookie!

I love the pearl necklace on this one!

Before this post goes any further, I MUST give a warning.  If you are easily offended, now is the time to CLOSE this window.

You need some undies to match that sassy bra top! These lingerie heart-shaped cookies wouldn’t be a complete set without the lingerie bottoms!

‘Rated PG-13’ thong heart-shaped cookies.

BOW-CHICKA-BOW-WOW!

Add a few white sugar pearls to enhance,…uh,…the ‘rear’.

I used an open heart sprinkle to create some lacy undies.

Now wouldn’t these be fun to give your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day?! Maybe with a suggestive little love note?

{These could be fun at a lingerie bridal shower too? Or even a bachelor’s party?}

Sheesh, I hope I didn’t offend anyone! For real, I ALMOST didn’t post these, but I thought they were just way too fun not to share. I was inspired by this adorable Valentine’s Day card Missy spotted last year.
