Rainbow Bus Cookies

These cookies are for sweet Jennifer and her adorable one year old Finn.

Jennifer had told me about her vision, and then sent a little picture along for me to follow from.

I would not consider myself a hippy by any means, but I sure did get my groove on making these!

As you might have imagined, I didn’t have a bus cookie cutter, so I made a template and cut each one of these out by hand.

I love her color choices!

No wonder you wanted to take so many photos! I’d be tempted to get them on the floor and play traffic games with them! How adorable. And just perfect for a one year old.
Am loving the PB cookies with choc cov raisins too…copied it right away!

Oh my! These are absolutely amazingly beautiful! How did you have the patience to cut each one without a cookie cutter? You did a fabulous job! I do have a quick color question for you, if you don’t mind…I am making starfish cookies for a wedding in April and the bride would like them to be navy (with coral dots, the two colors of the wedding). Your purple/navy bus looks like a good place to start for the color…at least on my computer. How would you make navy frosting?
They are totally groovy!
Thanks!
