3D Ornament Cookie

Julia can’t wait to show you how to make these incredibly lifelike 3-D holiday cookie ornaments. Made of her super tasty gingerbread, they are, of course, meant to be eaten, but they also make terrific holiday mantel or table decorations, place cards, or even Christmas crackers if filled with candies! This project relies on several techniques that Julia pioneered and perfected over recent years, including contouring and molding cookie dough, airbrushing (or spraying) contoured cookies using conformable stencils, and “sandwiched” 3-D assembly. Even better – all of the techniques learned in class can be applied to 2-D cookies!

You’ll learn:

  • Adapting dough recipes for contoured, 3-D cookies
  • Contouring cookie dough
  • Molding cookie dough
  • Frankencookie-ing
  • Dipping
  • Outlining and flooding
  • Royal icing transfers
  • Spraying with luster sheens
  • Stenciling on contoured cookies using conformable stencils
  • Precision-piping on contoured cookies
  • 3-D “sandwiched” assembly
