MARDI GRAS | Satisfying Cookie Decorating

I finally made a Mardi Gras set! I don't know why, but of all the themes I haven't made yet this was seems like one of the longest times coming! Maybe it's because I bought the cutters last year with every intention of using them... then didn't. But here they are now!

The Sugar Art -- https://bit.ly/2W1z6im -- my favorite for:
*** use code THEGRACEFULBAKER15 for 15% off your order from The Sugar Art!
- Sterling Pearls (metallic dusts like gold): https://bit.ly/3AN5Quh
- DiamonDust (edible glitter!!): https://bit.ly/3sqtZnF
- Elite color (powdered food coloring for painting and dry dusting): https://bit.ly/3xVsb7l
- Master Elites (highly pigmented powders for coloring icing...a MUST for red and black!!): https://bit.ly/3k1L8Af
***Please note: my LEMON royal icing recipe does NOT work with all of the Master Elite colors due to the acidity of the lemon juice -- a VANILLA (non-lemon) recipe is best used for the Master Elite pinks, otherwise I use all of their other colors with my lemon recipe (I use Wilton pink with my lemon recipe)

Projector: I own both of these projectors. I first owned the Pico and purchased the Bluetooth as an upgrade. If budget is a concern, the Pico gets the job done (just make sure that you're plugging it in correctly!). Otherwise, I recommend the Bluetooth - it has a better/brighter image and connects via Bluetooth.
