Bridal Shower: Cookie Flower Favors


Here's a fun take on the bride's bouquet. For a bridal shower activity, let each guest frost and decorate sugar cookie flowers. We ordered from a baker plain sugar cookies cut in a variety of flower shapes and put on wooden skewers. (You can bake your own, too -- just insert 1/8 - 1/4" wooden dowels when the cookies are just warm out of the oven. They need to be a good 1/2" thick.)

Everybody shared decorating bags with frostings in different pastel colors and with a variety of decorating tips. A colorful selection of sprinkles, colored sugars, and little candies finished the look.

Best part: Each guest selected one cookie to place in a vase for the bride's bouquet (a gift from everyone). Then, the rest were wrapped up in tissue, tied with a ribbon, and taken home by the guests to enjoy!
