Anniversary Photo Cookies
I was a little nervous doing these…and before you get nervous too, please relax.
I bagged and tied with a ribbon that my neighbor had made for the occasion.
I, also, will tell you I tried the “frosting sheets” to see how they tasted…ummm, yuck.
I was a little worried about the taste, because I really pride myself in making not only cute cookies, but yummy ones too. BUT I made a few extra cookies and tried one..you know, just to test…and the icing sheets literally melt into the frosting leaving no taste behind except frosting and cookie.
They were yummy!

They turn out great. I do have a problem saying always yes, and then figuring out how I am actually going to do the project.
They look great! I love that feeling after you do something new and scary, and it comes out awesome!
VERY nice and very ambitious! 🙂 I'm struggling just to make simple cut out sugar cookies and your whipping out ones with photos on them. LOL, great job Shelly!

Those are adorable! Great job! Now you have an excuse to make these for weddings, showers, birthdays, etc. Endless possibilities!
How cute are these?! I have been dying to get one of those printers for myself ever since I saw the vintage Valentines cookies Bakerella did. You did an awesome job!!
Of course they look fantastic, I love the sugar detail.

These are wonderful – and what a treasure. I bet everyone loved them!
How fun would this idea be for a birthday party!
Gorgeous! I love the sparkling sugar frame!!
Very cute and impressive!
These are such a unique idea and would be lovely as wedding favors or anniversary party cookies! I am so impressed that you pulled them off!
These look pretty amazing!! I'd love for the do's and dont's as well.. I've always been intimidated of this!
These are so wonderful! I'm sure they were a huge hit at the anniversary.
The cookies are fabulous – the anniversary couple must have loved them!
Wow, these are wonderful and would make a perfect gift.
I wonder how these would ship. My anniversary is in a couple months and i would love to send some to my husband.
I love these wedding cookies!!! They're so cute on the circle with the dots and sparkle!
I actually broke down and bought one. An Epson that is compatible with the "ink." I just mailed off my first batch yesterday and they were pretty cute. Talk about EASY!!! I'm making more for kiddo's soccer game on Saturday. We have snacks and I am NOT making another soccer ball…I can't do it! the hexagons break me every time!!!
PS…so glad you get nervous after saying "yes," too. 😉
How wonderful they turned out!!! What a fun favor for the occasion.
These look amazing! And thank you so much for some tips on using the edible images. I've been wanting to buy a set-up for a while now but I'm trying to find a consistent supplier for the ink that doesn't charge huge amounts for shipping to NZ 🙁
These look fabulous! I have done photo cookies a couple of times…very fun:) I'm sure the anniversary couple loved them!
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! I once had to make 2500 cookies. NEVER AGAIN. NEVER EVER EVER. And they didn't look anywhere NEAR as good as your cookies!
WONDERFUL JOB!!! My theory is to say YES and figure out how to do it later!!!
You are GENIUS I have been trying to find out how to do a picture on cookies and this is it! Anyway you could send me the do's and dont's?
i think that more often than not, the best advice in any given situation is RELAX! these cookies are a work of art, from the base goodies themselves to the sprinking of sugar around the image to the actual image. bravo!!
Amazing job!!!
They turned out wonderful!!
Those photo cookies turned out so cute! I can't believe you made 860 cookies for Halloween…you are truly amazing, they all looked great!
Wow, these are fantastic and would be perfect for so many occasions!
Beautiful cookies. Great information on the frosting sheets. Thanks!
They came out great! Love the details you added. It's nice to hear when the project is done that you want to do more. Not all projects go that way!
These are too cute. You are very very talented. I'm so excited that I ran across your blog
When I saw these, I immediately thought of Janet. She is a sweetheart, isn't she? love her.
And these cookies are too cute- you did a great job on them. I never thought to go to the grocery store bakery to get the sheets printed, but they do them all the time.
Very cute! Our wedding anniversary is this week. Maybe I can just do a few…
So cute! But please tell me, how do you get your "dots" so perfectly round? Mine always come out with a point on top. I need help! Thanks!
Thanks everyone for the sweet comments!
I will try and put together a nice list of do's and don'ts!
maryjo-too funny about the dots. I have found that I can make them without the point if I thin my icing just a teeny-tiny bit. It it's not as stiff it won't peak as much, and relax into a nice dot 🙂
These are so beautiful. You are incredibly talented.
You did a beautiful job on them! I bet everyone loved them. Thanks for showing us how to make them.
Aw wow what a nice idea, these are beautiful! Youre so creative!
Good Lord, you are so amazing! These are so beautiful.
These are fantastic! I didn't realize that you could get the frosting sheets printed at the bakery. Even though it's expensive, it's good to know! Thanks for all the info – and good job on the cookies!
Those are so awesome…too pretty to eat!
I don't think I have ever seen a more beautiful cookie than this. Wow! You did a MARVELOUS job, Shelley. Kuddos to you.
Holy Moly! So happy that I ran into your site. These would be perfect for my Mom and Dad’s 50th anniversary coming up. I just need to tell myself that I can do this….maybe hee! hee!
How many days in advance did you make these?
Thanks so much!
