Book Reviews of The Flour Pot Cookie Book
Book Review: time consuming but simple
Summary: 5 Stars
I decorate A LOT of cookies and any method you use takes time. This book uses fondant for decorating. It has the texture of playdough, it's easy to work with, can be colored any shade you desire and tastes pretty good (depending on what brand you use - Wilton is not good!). Fondant is actually kind of fun to work with and the end result is very neat & polished. You roll out your fondant, then cut it with the same cookie cutter that you cut your sugar cookies with and paste it on the cool, already baked cookie with a bit of corn syrup to make it stick. Then you pipe some details on top of the fondant with a simple royal icing. Then you let them dry! There is a recipe for sugar cookies in this book that is perfect for rolled cookies that you want to decorate because this recipe will keep it's shape well during baking. The royal icing recipe is very basic (meringue powder, water, sugar). You do need some special supplies to make things easier but nothing too fancy. The cookies in this book are so cute and it covers most holidays and special occasions also. The price of this book is really good - especially on Amazon and is well worth the price. I would say this book is not too hard for beginners - it will be a bit of work but it's not impossible. I know from the photos on the front of this book that you are thinking it's too advanced and much too complicated but don't assume that! It's not that difficult.
