Palm Tree And Flamingo Cookies
Palm trees and flamingoes are quintessential symbols of summer, and they make for fun and easy cookie designs. Grab these adorable cutters to cut out your cookies in the shape of palm trees and flamingoes.
Use green royal icing to create the leaves and brown icing to create the trunk of the tree and pink royal icing to create the body as well as black icing to create the beak and legs of the flamingo. You can also add some sand-colored accents to make them look like they're sitting on the beach.
Sunshine, Sunglasses And FlipFlop Cookies
