"Sugar Cookies Fit For A Princess"

This was the first order I agreed to take after my carpal tunnel release surgery. Raja Johanna ordered these chocolate decorated cookies to celebrate the arrival of her baby girl last December 2013. She marked the arrival of baby Zahira, full name Tengku Zahira Eusnie by hosting a Majlis Aqiqah & Cukur Jambul for her relatives and close friends on the 16th of March 2014.

 

The theme colour was pink and the rest she left it up to me to decide the design and combination of theme colours. Her only other specification was to have baby related shape for my cookies. At first, I was kind of worried committing myself to this order because of my hand, which is not fully healed and also the water rationing in Selangor, but I planned and organised myself with this order. I was quite proud actually that I managed to get this order done despite my predicament.

 

I started off earlier in the week by baking the chocolate cookies. Since we were experiencing water rationing, I wanted to get the cookies done while we had water. Thank goodness, the cookies turned out well and we managed to finish our baking in 2 days as I split them into two batches. I even baked a few extra pieces in the event of breakages. My idea was to have 6 different cookie shapes with each shape comprising of 25 cookies. The cookie shapes I made were pacifiers, baby rattles, onesies, butterflies, prams & teddy bears. I also had the thank you tags customised and printed by a professional printer. The theme colours I chose for the cookies were baby pink, light grey and white.
