You’ve got the basic recipe. Now learn all the different ways you can decorate those holiday sugar cookies like a pro.
To complete this How-To you will need:
Specialty decorating items
Sugar cookie dough
Cookie cutters
Cookie sheets
Currants, chopped nuts, or assorted candy
Eggs
Food-coloring liquid and food-coloring gel or paste
A pastry brush or small artist’s brush
Hard candies
A plastic bag
A rolling pin
Plastic squeeze bottles
Royal icing
A butter knife
Rolled fondant
Waxed paper
Cookie tins
A straw
A toothpick
Step 1: Get supplies
Go to a baking-supply or craft store, or shop online for specialty cookie-Decorating items.
Step 2: Jazz them up
There are tons of ways to decorate your cookies before baking. After you’ve rolled out the dough and cut the cookies into shapes, press currants, nuts, or candy into them. Or brush them lightly with egg white and dust with colored sanding sugar or sprinkles.
Tip: Dragees, those tiny gold and silver balls that adorn fancy cookies and cakes, are edible. But because they contain real metal, eating them is not advisable.
Step 3: Glaze them
To add colorful shine, glaze cookies before baking by whisking a few drops of liquid food coloring into an egg yolk and spreading it on with a pastry brush or small artist’s brush.
Tip: If you want to hang cookies on your Christmas tree, use a straw to make holes in the tops before baking.
Step 4: Create stained glass
For a stained-glass effect, put hard candies into a plastic bag, crush them with a rolling pin, and then sprinkle them onto unbaked cookies. The candies will melt to look like beautiful stained-glass windows.
Tip: Do a test cookie to make sure the candy doesn’t start to burn before the cookie is fully baked. If that happens, add the candy after the cookies are half-baked.
Step 5: Ice them
For already-baked cookies, try frosting them. Whip up some royal icing, divide it into separate batches, and tint with food-coloring gel or paste. Put the icing in plastic squeeze bottles, pipe it around the outline of each cookie, squeeze some in the center, and spread it evenly over the top with a butter knife or a brush.
Tip: For a marbled effect, spread a light coating of white icing on the cookies. Then pipe on stripes of colored icing and swirl them with a toothpick.
Step 6: Make them glitter
Frosted cookies can be decorated even more by sprinkling them with edible glitter or luster dust.
Step 7: Make rolled fondant
Make or buy rolled fondant. Add food-coloring gel or paste to different batches, roll them out, and use your cookie cutters to make pieces that are identical to your cookies. Brush the bottoms with a tiny bit of water and press them onto the cookies.
Step 8: Store properly
Store your cookies in airtight containers, in single layers separated by waxed paper.

► Nadia’s tips on interior design ideas for the kitchen
○ Do your homework – on you!
First things first, start researching. Look through magazines and design books and take photos of kitchens you like, and ask questions of your friends.
Keep everything together in a binder so you can refer to it as you go through the process.
○ Visualize your Interior Design ideas with 3D design software
There are so many options that your kitchen project may seem overwhelming at first. This is where a good design program can really help like Homestyler so you can actually see how things will look.
Begin by entering your kitchen’s dimensions and cabinets according to your current floor plan. Then you can begin exploring your interior design ideas. See how different kinds of flooring, countertop surfaces, cabinet colors, wall colors and textures from specific manufacturers look.
○ Choosing kitchen appliances
Take stock of your daily and occasional kitchen needs. Do you cook a lot of meals or entertain much? Knowing how you will you use your kitchen will help you determine the types and grades of appliances to consider.
○ Selecting fixtures
Make sure fixtures look good and function well with the interior design and layout ideas you have. Your kitchen needs to be equally as functional as it is beautiful. Keep the work triangle in mind that goes from the sink to the refrigerator to the stove.
○ Get feedback and ask for ideas
Share your kitchen designs with friends and family and print out your design and take with you to a showroom to get advice from the pros as well.
Whether you’re a novice cook or an experienced chef, you may need a hand remodeling your kitchen. That’s where Autodesk Homestyler can be your prep chef.
