(AKA my new favorite cookie assortment!) I had an order last week for Cat in the Hat first birthday cookies. The design was inspired by these and these.

I started with my secret trick - paper templates and food markers.
Hats all outlined ...

... then filled in and glossy! These were easier than I thought they'd be, because the lines didn't have to be perfectly neat - a little bit of wonkiness added to the hand-drawn look. I did the detail lines while the icing was still wet so they would have a smooth texture.

Ta-da! All packed up and ready to go. The hats were wrapped individually to use as favors. I'm thrilled with the way they turned out, I hope the birthday boy was, too!
