Christmas Cookies!

Another belated post... the cookies I made for Christmas this year!

I have been working on creating an icing that is Claire-safe (egg, corn, dairy and soy-free.)  So far, I have not had success.  These cookies look okay from afar, but there was massive color bleed, they never really set up firm, and the general look of the icing was just not ideal.  More experimentation needed!

Wilton's cute reindeer set. The Santa is from a pack of gummy candies I found at Walmart that were surprisingly soft and tasted really good!
Picture
Snowman from the same pack of gummies. The black background of the fireplace is painted directly on the cookie with food coloring... in retrospect I would use wet-on-wet with black, yellow and orange icing to get a nicer flow with the flame.
