It is official. I am insane.
Two weeks ago, I made these sugar cookies and froze them. No, cookie cutter. I made a paper pattern and cut around it with a knife.

Tuesday, I iced them (frozen) in 5 colors of royal icing.

Now they look like flip flops!

Then I wrote on them with edible felt pens. (insane part)


Now they are individually wrapped and in my fridge, waiting for their ride to San Diego tomorrow.

Palma-Okay, you might be a little crazy(in a good way!), but those cookies are just adorable. I'm sure they will be the hit of the party. Thanks for a great idea also.

Palma, they are the cutest favors that I have ever seen. Might just have to try them for a Shower in early June.

Palma, I just saw flip flop cookies made of iced rice crispy treats at the Super Target here in Norman, Oklahoma today. I was tempted to buy some for the grandkids except that they were tiny and cost $1.99 each... plus I was afraid they'd get crush on the flight home... So I passed on that purchase.
You gave me an idea for a great kitchen project with the kids... Thanks . :)

You are definitely not insane. I did have to read the part about writing on them twice though to make sure they could still be eaten. I agree, these are cutest favors I have also ever seen.
