Princess Crown Cookies


Some sparkly princess crowns for a certain little princess turning 5.  I helped provide some take-home treats.
There was a bit of a cookie crisis when my royal icing decided to turn into sticky marshmallow fluff instead of drying and hardening. I was panicking. This happens to me very rarely, but it was humid the night I decorated them. I'm thinking that was the culprit.
I went ahead and dusted them with pearl dust and adored the way they sparkled. I think I may be obsessed with the stuff now. But there is still a fine haze of sparkles floating around our kitchen. And even after I showered, I am still shimmery.
The pearl dust actually helped and made it possible to bag them. It ended up working out and they ended up staying cute. I was worried!
