Rose cookies with an acorn cutter

2/12/2016

A rose by any other name would be . . . an acorn? In this case, YES! Thanks to Sugarbelle, you can create a cookie rose with many shapes- other than a rose cutter!  
I actually own a rose cookie cutter, but it was a little too small for my liking . As I was digging through my many many many bins of cutters, this acorn cutter caught my eye! Upside down, it's the perfect shape for a closed rosebud!
What you'll need:
* acorn shaped cookies
* flood and thicker royal icing consistencies, in your favorite rose color
* thick, green royal icing for the sepals (the little leaves at the base of a bud)
* petal dust for light shading (optional)

What to do:
1. Cut and bake your favorite acorn shape and size.  
2. Turn the cookie upside down. Flood the base of the rosebud. Let dry.
3. Use thicker royal icing, in the same color as the rose, to pipe the lines of the petals. Use my picture above as a guide. Or just do a little swirl at the top!
4. Use a petal decorating tip (my favorites are the PME leaf tips- 50, 51, 52) and the thick green icing to create the outer sepals
5. After a few minutes, pipe the center sepal. You're done!
If you wanted to, brush on a little petal dust to give some shading to the rosebud.  
​It's up to you!

These easy rosebuds are pretty on their own. . .

. . . or great as accent cookies with some other Valentine's Day sweets!
